What is fashion ? 

Fashion.. what is fashion? How can you begin to describe this word? 

Fashion is a world with no boundaries, no limits and only infinite number of possibilities. 

I discovered the passion for fashion when I was studying business management at Bahrain University. Those days there was no fashion related courses or degrees unfortunately so I started doing exhibitions to self-learn myself. 

I did many exhibitions and learned something new every time.  

In the past, different countries and regions had their own fashion statement of styles related to their cultures so you could get an idea of the county that it represents but nowadays fashion is a world of fusion, not only does it blend with one another but also copies the cultural element from each other. For example, in the Arab world, we have abayas whereas in the west it is called long capes. Jalabiyas in our part of the world is made of Indian fabrics and embroidery which makes them exclusive. 

Haram pants are designed in similar ways in India, Malaysia and Thailand. 

We can never draw any boundaries for fashion as it doesn’t believe in restrictions, it has a mind of its own and every designer is allowed to play this game with their own rules.

I strongly believe when we wear something with full confidence and enjoy what we are wearing, we create a   new style no matter how crazy or weird it looks. People will want to wear the same as that person that came up with this new look because they believe the dress boosted their confidence level, but it’s the other way around.
