Love for the arts accompanies him since childhood as well as the ability to create links between them.

Here\u00a0 is Hussein Bazaza<\/strong>, nine questions and answers.<\/p>\n

Hussein, you are one of the most respected young designer of the current international scene, you have made your first collection when you were only twenty-two years old, and by that time you\u2019ve collected one success after another, winning among others, many prestigious awards. Could you share something about your way in this field?<\/em><\/p>\n

It definitely hasn’t been an easy one; there were a lot of bumps along the road. But I’m grateful to say that it has been quite successful.<\/p>\n

What would you like to make known about yourself through your dresses?<\/em><\/p>\n

The message that I would like to send through my collections is, as a conclusion, to show people that we, at Hussein Bazaza, can create something artistic and wearable at the same time as well as pieces that are recognizably different than the typical Middle Eastern designer.<\/p>\n

In your opinion, how every woman should\u00a0 give value to her own femininity with a dress?<\/em><\/p>\n

To me, womanhood should be managed on each woman in her own terms. She should choose how she would like to expose her feminine heritage in her very own way.<\/p>\n

Hussein, you love create mixing across oriental and occidental cultures. What do you admire in both of them?<\/em><\/p>\n

I love the clash between both cultures. On one and the Oriental one is arabesque with old traditional and nostalgic feels, whereas on the other, the Western side screams modernity.<\/p>\n

Do you think that fashion, by way of the higher value of beauty, is a language that can create a link among cultures and various sociopolitical situations?<\/em><\/p>\n

I think that fashion is somewhat like a common religion for everyone around the world. When it comes to fashion, there are no borders. One wouldn’t know the difference if a specific piece was made in either Lebanon or in America until they ask which brand it is. So, fashion does succeed in creating a bridge between diversity which is rather incredible.<\/p>\n

Your country is famous for the ancient art of traditional fabrics, for their craftsmanship. How much this has influenced your decision to become a fashion designer?<\/em><\/p>\n

That is true. Lebanon is very well known for handcraft fabrics and its traditional ways. Unfortunately though and with all honesty, we do not really incorporate them a lot in our brand because we always try to present more modernity.<\/p>\n

What is for you authenticity from a professional point of view?<\/em><\/p>\n

Authenticity is when an artist finds his own signature style, is own signature which he can be recognized,\u00a0 and which no one is able to imitate, because they would not be capable enough to have it look as good as the actual work, because no one has the same gaze.<\/p>\n

What was the happiest day in your career ?<\/em><\/p>\n

My absolute best day from a professional point of view, is any day I receive sweet compliments, great feedback, and appraisals from clients.<\/p>\n

Would you like tell us something about your daily routine?<\/em><\/p>\n

There is no typical work day for me. Each day comes with different tasks, but as an overview, I am always in the atelier working on new projects, heading to the showroom to meet up with my beloved clients, and basically going back and forth.<\/p>\n\r\n\t\t
