M7 in Doha is reshaping the way in which the world sees fashion.

Led by Qatar Museums under Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, M7 has unveiled The Global Edit, a bold initiative designed to showcase Qatari talent and the region’s most innovative designers at the forefront of international fashion conversation.

The Global Edit offers customised advice, mentorship, strategic direction, and international exposure. Connecting designers with the ateliers of Paris, the catwalks of Milan, and the networks that will eventually shape the future of the industry. The selection process of the brands is careful not only because of creativity, but also, and more importantly, commitment to thoughtful and conscious design, reflecting the mission of M7 to fuse innovation with purpose.
