Shahira Lasheen's Ceremony N.05 is Inspired by Pre-Wedding Rituals

In a fashion landscape obsessed with immediacy, Ceremony N.05 feels like a breath drawn between generations. The fifth chapter in the House’s annual capsule series, Ceremony has always been a quiet act of devotion to the detail Egyptian craftsmanship.

THE MUSE

This season, Shahira turns inward, tracing the sacred thread that ties mothers to daughters, and daughters to the lives they’ll go on to live. “Each piece is a vessel,” as one House note reads. “Not stitched to impress. Stitched to remember.”

THE COLLECTION DISSECTED

Five gowns. All handcrafted in the House’s Garden City atelier. Sculptural silhouettes are pared back with reverence, fluid, architectural, and quietly extraordinary.

The collection is crafted from fluid crepe, Italian satin, embroidered crepe, organza satin, and weightless tulle - fabrics chosen for their tactility, permanence, and quiet ability to hold emotion.

At its core lies the House’s continued exploration of Al Asabgi embroidery: a traditional Egyptian technique reimagined here as something more intimate, often concealed within the seams, like a secret passed down.

HOW TO STYLE IT

THE LEGACY THREAD

Shahira Lasheen is no stranger to generational craftsmanship. The House’s very first Ceremony—Al Asabgi—was a tribute to the craftsmen who built its foundation. With Stories in Golden Thread, the tribute turns personal. These pieces are not designed for fashion week. They’re designed for the family archive.

THE FAMILY CLIENT PROGRAM

To accompany the collection, the House introduces something almost unheard of in regional couture: The Family Client Program. Reserved for families whose personal histories are already entwined with the House, clients are granted privileged access: early previews, private appointments, and a window into the House’s archives. But the true heart of the program lies in its bespoke nature—custom garments and deeply personal experiences designed to honour family milestones.

THE VERDICT

In a world of hyper-fast fashion and viral gimmicks, Ceremony N.05 is an outlier. It’s couture in its purest form: ritualistic, reverent, and slow. And in Shahira Lasheen’s hands, that slowness becomes its own kind of rebellion.
