JEWELRY VS MUSIC
Imagine two of the most wonderful , Inspirational and successful women in one project ? Designer Azza Fahmy just launched her new collection "SUMA "and the theme is all inspired my Um Kalthoum's work .
Check what Azza Fahmy had to say about "Om Kalthoum" in a written note
The fourth piece is a very oriental style earring , BEAUTIFUL
And here comes the fifth piece a classic button earring embellished in a cluster of stones and gold calligraphy for words of the infamous Om Kalthoum song " Amal Hayaty " and the statement necklace's pendant is very close to the earring .
The Seventh piece is so simple and graceful piece .. I can imagine a princess wearing it . the layered beaded neck piece adorned with stones and a beautiful verse by Egyptian poet Ahmed Ramy took us to the royal styles .
The Eighth piece is a mix between a contemporary ring ( the silver part) and with a gold calligraphy for one of Om Kalthoum famous songs .. the verse is written by Egypt's graceful poet Ahmed Ramy .

CHANEL GONE COLORFUL !
Chanel is one of the most classical brands of all time . It's famous for it's style that never fade by time . Chanel collection always been more neutrals and black than colors but this year Karl Lagerfeld surprised everyone with his modern twist . The fashion show set up and the collection were a mix between modern art museums and space which made even the classical colors appear in an innovated way but all of that did not make Chanel lose it's charm . GREAT JOB LAGERFELD .

WHEN FASHION IS A PASSION.. PASHION MAGAZINE
Susan Sabet , Editor In Chief of PASHION magazine and one of the most classy and decent persons anyone can ever meet talked to COLORFUL MANIA about her passion for fashion; her favorite designers and fashion Icons and how one can stand a chance in the fashion world.
Susan Sabet launched PASHION, a pan-Arab bi-lingual , Arabic & English, fashion, beauty and luxury magazine in 2004, aiming to keep her readers in the fashion with a compilation of the top seasonal trends and must-have items, and introduce young emerging talents from our region.
Q: Egypt has a few fashion opportunities ,What should young designers do to prove themselves in the field?
A: You have to be really committed and prepared for a long tiresome road till success. You have to learn properly how to design, make patterns, cut and sew. Only then can you really produce something wearable. I suggest you try to intern with a properly set up designer first , to really understand all the steps of the production from inspiration to final product.
Q : Who is your favorite designer ?
A :There are so many designers I like. It also depends on each
season but in general my favorite designers are Giambattista Valli, Dior, Fendi,Stephane Rolland for high end. I like Cos and Zara for high street and then I always find great pieces from young emerging mid-range priced designers .

Q:What are the must have items in your bag ?
A:I always have several shades of lipstick and lip gloss in my bag.the rest are just basics like phone, note book , keys, comb, etc..
Q: What you loved most and what you hate about New York Fashion collection?
A: There is really nothing I hated about NYFW . there were so many strong collections and it was all so fresh and colorful, that I wish next spring was already here.
Q: What you loved most and what you hate about New York Fashion collection?
A: There is really nothing I hated about NYFW . there were so many strong collections and it was all so fresh and colorful, that I wish next spring was already here.
Q:Who do you consider your fashion icon?
A: I wouldn't call it fashion icon, its more of style icons to me. And that's not really about wearing the latest runway look, but its more of the way those women carry themselves and carry a look. The late Grace Kelly and Jackie O. would look more stylish in a simple pullover and pants than so many celebrities today, made up from head to
toe in designer gowns. I also love Angelina Jolie on the red carpet. she is always stunning.
