- Who or what inspired you to become a designer?
- Art and history are my biggest inspirations. I am a person who travel a lot and I've visited a lot of different countries and cultures, I've met a lot of people so for me this is an amazing experience and my biggest inspiration.

- Men do not always pay attention to the way they dress. Give some advice to men - how should they dress to be stylish?

- His way of thinking, knowing very well what exactly he/she wants to achieve (target of clients) and presenting something new in fashion which later to become trendy.
- What are your plans for the future?
- To design my first collection 'Raa', inspired from ancient Egyptians in modern way by using and barging a special old alphabet symbols such as 'Hieroglyph' - an artistic representation of an esoteric idea.
