Maryam Al Falasi designs Zayed Museum staff uniforms
Emirati designer Maryam Al-Falasi developed an official uniform for the staff of the Zayed National Museum. The design is based on elements of traditional Emirati heritage, blended with modern touches that harmonize with the museum's architectural and cultural identity. Al-Falasi incorporated features such as the Telli (embroidery) and kandura (traditional Emirati attire) into the design, adding contemporary details to the sleeves, jackets, and head covering (ghutra and agal). The colors were inspired by the desert environment. The goal of the design was to combine national identity with practical comfort, reflecting pride and a sense of belonging among the staff, while enhancing the visitors' experience through a contemporary cultural presence. The choice of this design came after her victory in a competition launched by the museum's administration in 2023, aimed at creating a uniform that fuses authenticity and innovation, and that embodies the legacy of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.
