Items related to Cairo Fashion Design: Young Tendencies / Junge Tendenzen
Contrasts do not always imply conflict. Discovering the creative powers latent in the charged field between Islam and the West, the fashion designer Susanne Kumper has established a 'Fashion Department' at Helwan University in Cairo. Collaborating with the men and women she teaches there, she has been working since 1999 on casual wear geared to the Western tastes as well as fashions that cater for the need to veil the body as prescribed by contemporary Islam. This is not at all a contradiction in terms for her female students - who often wear the veil - but an enrichment, as Susanne Kumper is the first to admit. Studying fashion design gives students a chance to suceed in the international fashion trade. Supported by textiles firms such as Olsen, the German embassy in Cairo and the German co-operative development agency CIM, the design student's work is presented to the public on the catwalk and at exhibitions. In addition, Bedouin women from the valleys of the Sinai do traditional embroidery for modern outfits designed by the students and their teachers in Cairo.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The fashion designer Susanne Kuemper recognised the creative potential residing in the tension between the Islamic and Western worlds and built up a 'Faculty of Fashion' at Helwan University in Cairo. Since 1999, together with her students, she has been working on imaginative creations that appeal to the Western taste, as well as fashion that takes Islamic veiling requirements into account. This publication shows why outfits designed in the Arabic world are increasingly capturing the attention of the Western world. Impressive photo shoots, whether in Cairo or at the pyramids, show us the unusual creations against a breathtaking backdrop. The photographer Joerg Heieck shows us daily life in Cairo in a black-and-white photo gallery. Contrasts do not always imply conflict. Susanne Kumper has discovered the creative powers that lie dormant in the relationship between Islam and the West and has established a Fashion Design Department at Helwan University in Cairo.
