the uprising following the presidential election in iran have been watched and supported by people of every nationality and creed as well as leading musicians, entertainers, writers and thinkers.
now fashion followed the suit.
italian haute couture designer guillermo mariotto wears "neda alive" tshirt as he takes a bow, while models wear a green ribbon and raise their hand with v signs, in honor of protesters killed in iran during the uprising.

beautiful iran, our hearts and thoughts are with you.

zevs's liquidated logo exhibition opened at art statements gallery in hong kong and the artist got arrested for putting a huge dripping chanel sign on armani store's facade just days before the opening.
vandalism? irony? shock value? brand meltdown? what do you see?
i see a powerful message that we shouldn't take everything so seriously, especially in fashion.
i also think: look, its so hot that even cool labels are melting.
but that's only because i am in dubai and it's 45C outside.

we like to p☆rty

just when you think you know h&m, it goes and does something like that.
reccesionistas everywhere will be very very happy come this fall, because h&m teamed up with celebrities favorite shoe brand jimmy choo.the accessories range will be complemented by a one-off capsule collection of jimmy choo womenswear, as well as a men’s range of shoes, bags and accessories.

only four days after president sarkozy declared that islamic dress is not welcomed in france, number of top european fashion houses unveiled { pun not intended } their collection of abayas at george v hotel in paris. models clad in creations by john galliano, alberta ferreti, nina ricci and blumarine walked the runaway { one model rode a white horse - bianca jagger moment right there } in abayas designed especially for saks fith avenue in saudi arabia. first batch of abayas, ranging from $5,500 to $11,150, will be given as gifts to saks most faithful clients. ready-to-wear versions of the robes will hit the sales floor in september, retailing for around $2,500.

will the designer abayas be a hit? i guess time will tell.
all i can add is that i have seen far more exciting abayas designed by local abaya makers, right here, in the middle east.

here is an interview with milia m, first arabic designer who showed at milan fashion week.
milia has a loyal,adoring and growing following in the region and is stocked around the world.
did i mention she has beautiful store in downtown beirut?
must visit if you are in paris of middle east this summer.

☆how and when you started designing?
i started designing in 1992.my own brand was established in 2000.

☆☆what the is most rewarding part of being a designer?
recognition.

☆☆☆how challenging is being a designer in middle east?
quite a big challenge despite the fact that the competition is less, so the exposure is bigger and the consumer is very open to buy upcoming designers from the region.
what's difficult is to create the platform that is non existent in terms of manufacturing and know how many levels of the process.
also to reach the international scent without living in the center where the fashion scene is happening.

☆☆☆☆ what or who are your influences, design-wise?
i was quite inspired by the japanese designers at the beginning, not anymore.
today i'm not sure my work is influenced by others.
every collection of mine influences the coming one, so it develops in its own identity.

☆☆☆☆☆ i won't ask about your inspiration.instead i will ask about inspirational people.
who inspires you?
some women who are already in my life but i'm also inspired by movies such as henry and june, based on a book of anais nin and character played by uma thurman or emmanuelle beart in nellyet monsieur arnaud.

☆☆☆☆☆ what are your favorite pieces?

our famous "thread top" - a silk top hanging on very thing silk threads made in different colors or also a very think tank top.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆what do you think of interviewer?
(i know, we've never met - it's sort of my standard last question)

i'm happy they are here and interested and always appreciate when they put a personal note in their questions and a give style to their story.

pretty ☆ please

i've never been a matthew williamson fan but damn,i love what he's done for h&m!
i've been nursing a cobalt blue obsession for a while now and this 2 piece silk suit with fuchsia piping is sure to satisfy it for now.and the sequined dress.oh, and the jumpsuit too.
summer is looking so much better and hotter right now.
now i can brave the impending dubai heat.
thanks matthew.
