THE POWER OF FASHION

His father an architect, his mother a well-known lawyer, Rami Al Ali grew up in comfortable surroundings with his four sisters in Deir ez-Zor, Syria. His love of fashion was moulded by his sisters, who showed him the power that fashion can have. This not only transforms appearances, but also confidence and self-understanding. This fascinated Al Ali greatly, awakening in him the desire to work creatively. Naturally, he was also aware that the rural environment in which he lived was not necessarily the right place for a budding designer. He therefore headed to the Syrian capital, Damascus, where he studied Visual Communications at the College of Fine Arts. Here he could experiment with his skills and interests as he saw fit. After early forays into interior design and graphic design, he finally settled on fashion. Al Ali’s graduation work took the form of an impressive fashion show, which revealed the exceptional talent that the young man possesses.
