US designer with Iraqi roots stuns NY fashion week

September 10, 2016 By publisher

Oday Shakar is still young but he has already lived through more than your average American fashion designer: childhood bullying, two years in Iraq after the Gulf War and cancer. “I realized I needed to find beauty in my own story so that's where I grabbed inspiration for this, so I mix contemporary Middle Eastern art with beautiful simple silhouettes for everyday (wear),” Shakar told AFP. “My aunt studied fashion design and wasn't able to pursue it, so in a way I'm doing all of this because she didn't get the chance and I have the opportunity, being an American,” he said.

April 7, 2016 By publisher

Kathryn Sargent made history on Wednesday by becoming the first female master tailor to open her own premises on London's Savile Row — the epicentre of traditional British bespoke tailoring. Sargent, who worked her way up the ranks during 15 years on the prestigious street at Gieves and Hawkes, opened her first tailoring house around the corner in 2012, before seizing the opportunity to move back onto Savile Row in her own right. Having become well-known for her skills in the close-knit Savile Row community, she was offered the chance to open her own premises.
