DORSA ZĀR Campaign: A Journey into the Depth of Ancient Southern Rituals
Dorsa invites its audience on a captivating journey into the mystical world of southern Iranian rituals through its latest campaign, “ZĀR.”
This campaign not only reflects the deep, enigmatic roots of the ancient Zār ceremony but also symbolises the bond between art, culture, and contemporary design — where timeless stories of this land are reimagined in modern creations.

The Zār Ritual — The Wind’s Possession and the Inner Narrative
The Zār ceremony is among the most mysterious and spiritual rituals of southern Iran.
In this ritual — accompanied by rhythmic music, dance, and symbolic offerings — participants believe they have been possessed by the “Zār wind.”
These winds are unseen, powerful forces that influence the body and spirit, and the ceremony seeks to calm them, restoring emotional and spiritual harmony.
Over centuries, this ritual has evolved into a central pillar of southern cultural identity, passed down through generations and kept alive in collective memory.
Inspired by these profound beliefs, Dorsa’s ZĀR campaign reinterprets the themes of possession, liberation, and inner awakening, weaving ancient stories into the fabric of modern fashion and craftsmanship.

Design Inspired by Culture and Climate
The products featured in the ZĀR collection draw inspiration from the rituals, textures, and natural beauty of southern Iran.
Each piece is not merely an item of craftsmanship, but a story encapsulated in design — rooted in heritage and enriched by artistry.
Every curve and pattern mirrors the connection between humanity and nature, between modern creativity and ancestral wisdom.
Through this collection, Dorsa demonstrates how modern design and ancient symbolism can coexist — reflecting the history and identity of a nation within contemporary art.

Cultural Narrative and Social Responsibility
A defining element of Dorsa’s creative philosophy is its dedication to social responsibility (CSR) and cultural storytelling.
Through initiatives like the ZĀR campaign, the brand not only introduces new products but also actively preserves and celebrates Iranian culture and traditions.
By narrating the story of the Zār ritual and showcasing the richness of southern heritage, Dorsa contributes to the revival and international recognition of Iran’s ancient customs.
This campaign is more than a commercial project — it is a cultural mission that encourages audiences to rediscover forgotten rituals and draw inspiration from them.

A Connection Between Ritual and Craft
Each product in the ZĀR collection embodies a narrative — a tale of possession, release, and awakening that mirrors the spirit of the Zār ceremony.
Owning a piece from this collection is not just an act of purchase, but an invitation to become part of a cultural story, a continuation of a timeless ritual expressed through design.
