Professional fashion events in 2022 by Hamza Qassim? Hamza Qassim (Born December 20, 2003) is a Jordanian Model. Raised in Amman, Jordan, Over the span of 2 years, Qassim has been seen in multiple international Vogue magazine appearances, including the Vogue website and Vogue Polska. After the release of the brand’s collection, Qassim started gaining more attention from the Fashion Industry in Jordan, and started modeling for multiple known brands in the region, like Moustache, He was seen modeling for their SS2021 prêt-à-porter Collection, after that, photoshoots with international Brands started coming Qassim’s way, like Fitella, (A US based brand).
Hamza Qassim worked on the Palestinian label Trashy Clothing’s summer 2021 campaign: Lawrence and Braika included kitschy odes to the Arab pop stars whom they consider to be gay icons of the early aughts, including Lebanese entertainer Haifa Wehbe, Egyptian singer Sherihan, and Maria, an Armenian Lebanese pop star. “They expressed their sexual side, which, while growing up, was so new. As queer people, we saw them claiming their sexuality and their bodies, and their lyrics and their voice,” says Lawrence. Many of the pieces in Trashy Clothing’s latest collection are inspired by these music videos, including a sleeveless tank and red pants culled from Wehbe’s “Ebn El Halal.” Sherihan’s face is also printed on a T-shirt and leggings, while Maria’s face appears on a skirt.
In May, Hedi Slimane has presented his latest collection for Celine, for autumn/winter 2022, which he chose to stage in two historical monuments in Paris, the Hôtel de la Marine and the the Hôtel National des Invalide. Entitled ‘Dans Paris’, the show was filmed by Slimane, off the usual Paris Fashion Week schedule and starred Kaia Gerber. Ralph Lauren opted to show away from the traditional fashion week schedule for autumn/winter 2022, instead holding an elegant evening at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. When I decided months ago to share my new collection in this intimate experience, there was no war in Ukraine, said the designer in a message to show guests. The tragedy and devastation we are witnessing now was unthinkable. Back then all I could think about was coming back together with my teams and all of you to share the hopefulness that collaboration and creativity can inspire. So, in the midst of this sadness, we go forward united in our hope for peace, and our hope for the end of this pandemic and a return to being together. I am so proud to be with you again sharing not only a collection, but an optimism for living that respects the dignity of all.” That optimism was reflected in a completely timeless collection of monochromatic pieces – punctuated with occasional bursts of red – in the sleek lines and tailored silhouettes that the label does so well.
In a typical season, our most-viewed shows list is fairly steady, but fall 2022 was no typical season. Early on in Milan, almost two years to the day after Covid broke out in Italy, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine disrupted any sense of post-pandemic return to normalcy the industry was hoping for. The rest of the season was an open question, whether or not designers chose to confront it: What is fashion’s place in a moment of incipient war? After a very strange few years, a relatively normal schedule of fashion shows wrapped in March. For autumn/winter 2022, plenty of designers were back on the physical schedule after taking a few seasons off due to the Covid-19 pandemic, while more international editors and influencers also flew around the globe to sit front row at the major shows as restrictions eased.
The Palestinian Fashion Collectives was another presentation for Hamza Qassim in 2021: In light of all this, a new class of Palestinian political activists, artists, and designers has emerged. This growing mass of politically minded collectives employ art to convey their love for their homeland—and preserve their heritage and history. This is their reclamation, one stitch at a time. Angham Khalil, the designer behind ready-to-wear brand n n b y n n, explores the struggle of attaining a cohesive identity under occupation. The brand’s decidedly unisex clothing, minimalist aesthetics, and subdued color palettes put forth an understated yet culturally potent vision of Palestinian fashion. “What the Palestinian artist lacks is the possibility of communicating with the world, especially with the Arab world. The occupation wants to keep us small without a voice,” says Khalil.
