NOMAN is a collective, founded by fashion designer Selina Parr and product designer Lara Tolman. NOMAN was born out of an idea to work together as equals, in creating an alternative world in which egos are subordinated. NOMAN is a trend moderation which can be presented in forms, colours and structures that can be applied to many fields of visual arts.
For the individual members of NOMAN, creating a collection does not end by the clothing itself, it finds expression in all aspects around it. Multiple disciplines merge together to express the fashion phenomenon, because for NOMAN fashion is more than a garment: it represents a spirit of age that can be expressed in different forms and shapes. Collaboration with various artists will add an extra dimension to the creation, with the ultimate goal to give the concept of fashion a broader interpretation.
And who is Zohra Murad, who designed that incredible dress?

She often uses her Afgan background as an inspiration as well as the cultures from all over the world. Her work consists of simple, clean and chic silhouettes, in which you can find traditional craftsmanship and colourful patterns.
