We had the good fortune of connecting with Fares Moses and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Fares, why did you decide to pursue a creative path?
When I was a child we had a big factory for ready-to-wear clothes and I would go help my family after school time. Year after year I started loving this career more and more. That’s why I decided to study fashion and I love it even more since I delved deeper into the subject matter. I feel the passion for fashion, creating fashion makes me happy. I can’t describe myself today without fashion. I feel I found myself in this career.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
My journey in my career wasn’t easy so far. Every new phase I face bring new challenges I need to overcome. All those challenges don’t break me, because I have a dream and I have passion. I’m a patient person. I’m being patient with all the upcoming challenges so that I can reach out to fulfill my dreams. I’m a couturier designer. I create art inspired by nature and geometrical shapes. My fashion brand is art that is wearable and unique. To create the ultimate dress or costume I make use of sustainable fabrics or materials, especially the embroidery is created from the finest materials. My style is a magical mix of Eastern and Western influences.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Amsterdam is always my beautiful city. There is a lot of nice places to be experienced such as live music venues (Bourbon Street) or museums (Van Gogh Museum). Actually everywhere in Amsterdam is beautiful, amazing and an experience on itself. One of the most fun things I like doing around town are for example just cycling around in Amsterdam (since it’s a beautiful city with amazing architecture) or drinking cup of coffee at the café in the Eye Film Museum.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
All what I have done so far is because of my family. There are no words that can describe how grateful I am today. If you were not in my life maybe I wouldn’t love fashion like I do now. I’m so glad that I can inspire other aspiring designers that there are possibilities to create. My message to young designers: Don’t give up on your dream! Just take one more step towards your hearts calling. It’s possible. You can do it.
