Rafedìn’s products are a combination of Italian and local style and testify to the link between the Middle East and the West.

The textiles, made in Italy, depict typical elements of Jordan: a view of houses in Amman, the archaeological sites of Petra, mosaics in the Mar Yousef structure where the tailor’s premises are located, and the zig-zag typical of the Arab keffiyeh.

La qualità della lavorazione is one of Rafedīn’s strengths: the girls learned their knowledge from Italian seamstresses and designers and a local tailor who taught them how to sew, design patterns, and create with their hands, giving them the tools to take back their future.

Thanks to Rosaria Mininno, a seamstress who has been involved in the project since the beginning, fashion designer Antonella Mazzoni, and tailor Mohsen, who sadly left us unexpectedly. With them, the girls not only learned to sew but also experienced a warm and welcoming environment—a big family that leaves no one behind.

Buying a Rafedīn product means choosing a quality garment and donating concrete help to Iraqi refugee women: the proceeds are in fact reinvested in the project and also serve to give a monthly reimbursement to the girls involved.

Help us to mend their future, too!
