In this week’s episode, we spoke to Meera Albaba from Gaza City in Palestine. Meera started her brand, MEERA ADNAN, which is a Palestinian contemporary womenswear label which operates from Gaza. Meera spoke to us about the struggles of starting her brand whilst living in a city under siege, what inspires her designs, and how the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has impacted her life.
