Canava Contemporary womenswear brand based in Dubai. Canava is a Dubai based womenswear label founded by Damascus born designer Nisreen Krimed.

Inspired by her Palestinian roots, Nisreen chose the name 'canava' which was traditionally used by Palestinian women throughout the years referring to the fabric or canvas used as a base for their beautiful embroideries. Canava today aims to preserve this passion to create pieces for the young and discerning woman. Every item is handmade from start to finish, a collage of memories and material put

together to create timeless, original and one of a kind contemporary items that every woman today would love to hold on to.

‘Remembrance’ For DXB Store | Art Dubai

A limited re-release silk scarf exploring memory, symbolism, and belonging, created in collaboration with artist Aude Abou Nasr. .my.darlings

In 2011, before Canava existed, I participated in DXB Store with a series of limited-edition loop scarves made from Damascene sheer linen. A year later, I returned with a small collection of hand-painted clutches featuring Palestinian embroidery crafted by Palestinian women living in Syria.

Fifteen years later, I find myself returning once again, still piecing together fragments of memory, heritage, and identity, now through Canava.

Being part of DXB Store again feels deeply personal. It’s an initiative that holds a special place in my heart.

The Ramadan Edit is here.

An exploration of nostalgia through crochet and lace collars, inspired by childhood garments and heirloom details.

Designed in soft, fluid fabrics that move with ease. The color stories shift between tonal harmony and intentional contrast, enhancing texture and depth.

Crystals are delicately integrated into the crochet in constellation-like placements, adding a refined touch.

A balance between memory and modernity.

Available online and in store. DM to order.
