Feb. 2022 Vol. 384384 FABULOUS FASHION "ORIENTED, I WORK EXTREMELY HARD IN MANIFESTING AND ACCOMPLISHING WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE." SAHRA MOHAMED SPECIAL INTERVIEW WITH &SHIMMERSHINE PHOTOGRAPHED BY ELINA KUSTLYVY SÉRIE MODE: NATUREL, CHIC ET CHAUD
Our goals for the year have been thought and may be even written down, but nothing really just come for us – manifestation might be great, but it doesn’t work by itself. That’s why we must go after our dreams and ambitions, because to dream without actually acting is just to think about something. And we’re bigger than this.
January might be a confuse time; it’s the first month of the year and we’re still on vacation mode even though we have to start working again. But now that it’s gone, it’s time to change our mindset and get things straight with ourselves.
If January wasn’t your month for any reason, start the year now, it’s okay. Make February great and big for you. Create new projects and have new ideas, the year is still just getting started.

Who ever said looking sexy should comprise your comfort? These days, that we’re still matching our lockdow habits with our old “normal” life, we're all looking for comfort even when we want to dress up. And sice we’re looking for hot casual outfit ideas and comfy but sexy outfits, the best we can do is find the best ways to make it happen while looking stylish. The Covid-19 situation will likely be under control again soon, but fashion will continue to be shaped by the experience of this big crisis for a very long time ahead, and for that re ason our new wardrobe must be comfortable and appear well-dressed at the same time - new garments may have to be developed for this purpose. People will demand more exuberant and body-hugging fashion for going out, while still loking for cozy outfits for the day.
Softness meeting rawness is the principle that lie the outfits we have already seen. Here, unconventio nal brightness and lightness meet monochromatic colourways. Tonal layered looks are given depth thro ugh chunky knits, a material with a structure to touch and feel, bringing that pop of attention to a neutral look. Fashion for Fall-Winter 22/23 invites you to stay cozy in the clo ud coat without quilting; the puffer jacket in short and neutral colours is also indispensable now. Another core product is the sleeveless coat, wrapping around the body with a wide silhouette that brings contrast to the outfit.
It’s time to dress up
The look for Fall 2022 season is casual yet per fectly coordinated in tonal layering. Sweatpants become more tailored and overall women's pants remain wide. Surface texture is shown through ribbed two-piece tops and pants, as well as long all-over knit dresses. As in previous seasons, knits remain chunky and rustic, oversi zed and voluminous, hairy and fluffy. Hairy bags and flat boots complement this quiet and sen sual look that allow you to go straight from work to the next happy-hour.
These contrasting trends between being super sexy and wanting to stay comfortable are reflected in in the latest runways and social media posts, which show us that the post-pandemic fashion will not be gradual, but instead will be either-or: either consistently day-to-day, or consistently exuberant.
For a more sensual approach on the conforta ble-yeat-sexy-look, silhouettes are slim, sophi sticated and necklines are plunging. Cut-outs –one of the favorites for the year - showcase the body and the dramatic looks are inspired by the club nights of the 70s and 80s. Glamorous party dresses, mini skirts and asymmetrical tops with glitter, sequins and leather shine into the dark ness of the night.

another hit for the year, keep that in mind. Bla zer are crisp with shoulders that are extremely emphasised. Another somewhat casual form of sensual look are tunics and capes, combined with flowing pants.
Folk motifs and streetwear garments also come together for a unique look. A patchwork of dif
For the chilli weather of winter, the silho uettes of the coats are wide and flared, the puffer jackets are fitted. Long wrap coats and short blouson jackets in dark shades of fake fur or animal print are combined with tight leather pants, shiny leggings or slim dresses. Legs are flaunted even more with high heels and over-the-knee boots –
ferent fabrics and textures and surfaces in colo urblocking constitute the essence of another way to look great while jumping on the trend. Nylon, knits, wool and paddings are used to create de constructed garments, often inspired by college life – the preppy style is going to be even bigger this year. Ribbons, pins and emblems comple ment the colourful blazers and jackets. Pleated skirts come in both mini and midi, but I do think the mini-skirts are making a huge comeback now, so don’t lose the opportunity to wear them again.
The point is, there are so many ways to make the com fortable and sexy look happen! And now is the perfect time to try them all – and even some even more different things, the sky real ly is the limit – whi le discovering what works best for you.
and they are wider, more colourful and, at their best, look handcrafted.
For a more casual but very statement look, we should rely on bold colours and clean, minimal shapes. Something like a futuristic form of art deco meeting sport swear, that we all started using a few se asons ago and just couldn’t let go. Deep colours emerge in bicolour looks. Lemon yellow, bright red and apple green lend fresh appeal to classic coats with drop ped shoulders.
Lacquer is indispensable as a statement material for jackets and pants. Oversi ze vests and hoodies in are inspired by winter sports and offer protection and style at the same time – great for the cold. Geometric patterns on shiny viscose skirts and knit sweaters are also borrowed from art deco; a futuristic nuance is brought in by loud colours. The colourful turtleneck sweater in jersey or rib-knit represents one of the essential pieces for look, as does the pink blazer or statement boots.
Checks on wool blazers, overshirts and fringed skirts carry a hint of the 70s and vintage nostalgia, something that the fashion pack loves. Coarse knitted sweaters or a preppy sweater also com pliment the look, as do coarse boots, sneakers and loafers with a high platform and bold frame stitching. Denim pants are also a big go-to piece,

Racism goes against everything we believe here in MALVIE
Whether it comes in big gestures, like bullying and name-calling, or disguised as “jokes”, racism is violent. It is always aggressive and has the only purpose to oppress people. And that is something we can no longer tolerate.
As we live in a world where people are being discriminated and even murdered for their skin color and genetic features, it is our mission to try to make life a little less scary.
You are not alone!
We know it will take time for us to make big chang es with worldwide im pacts, but we can try and start somewhere. That’s why we created MALVIE Noir, a special edition des tined to empower people of color and make their voices heard through the art. Also, in the immedi ate term, we are donating proceeds to a black led or ganizations that fights ra cial injustice.
We know we cannot change everything on our own, but we are doing our best to help in any way possible and to show our support in the making of a society in which everyone is safe, respected and gets ev ery opportunity they deserve.
You deserve to be respected and appreciated for who you are, and nobody has the right or the power to say otherwise.

If you could change something in the Modeling / Fashion world, what would it be?
challenged and shaped the modeling indus try. Iman, one of my favorite supermodels, paved the way for models like myself. Her stunning editorials and fierce runway walks fuels my imagination during photoshoots. Her images are outstanding and unique, which inspires me to keep trying new styles.
I’m inspired by powerful women, more specifically, women of color who have
A continuation of my current life with add ed features. I have long term career goals that I am carefully strategizing to achieve and short term daily goals I am currently ex ecuting. In the future, my ultimate plan is to enjoy all the seeds I’ve planted and reap the fruits of my labor with my loved ones. A life filled with love and an abundant amount of laughter. During the pandemic, I’m sure all of us took some time to reflect and hopeful ly prioritize what’s important to us. For me it’s family, as long as they’re with me, my fu ture will always be bright.
In the modeling industry, I would like to see fashion executives make decisions with re gards to creating diversity on all platforms. Casting directors should be encouraged to be more open minded and include mod els who reflect the many beautiful cultures seen in our society. It’s up to leadership to make these changes and acknowledge that
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH Sahra Mohamed
What do you love most about being a model?
I love how disciplined I’ve become at main taining a lifestyle that serves me. I like to eat good, nutritious food. I’m mindful what I watch, what I read and I invest my time in doing what uplifts me. This includes beauty routines, studying my fashion icons, exer cising and practicing positive affirmations. The more I take care of myself, the more my confidence shines through. The outcome of each photoshoot is a direct reflection of my daily efforts leading up to the session. I’m always pleased with the end results and more importantly, I’m happy with how I look and feel. Modeling helped me reach a place of self love and acceptance. What fuels your imagination and provides you with inspiration?
Tell us more about yourself. What else do you do next to modeling?
I studied Advanced Business Management at the British Columbia Institute of Tech nology. I worked in various corporate firms throughout Vancouver in both public and private sectors. I had a keen interest in law and had the pleasure of working in one of the largest corporate law firms in the coun try. It’s important to demonstrate how mu litfacted women are. I love fashion, beauty, immersing myself in the latest trends and I also enjoy pursuing an education. Being a businesswoman empowers me to take control of my life’s trajectory. From a young age, I learned being financially indepen dent. My mother taught me to dream big but if you finance yourself in doing so, you can dream even bigger.
At a time where beauty brands never ca tered to black models, Iman created her own beauty line for all women of color. I’m inspired by women who take control of their destiny, women who are unapologetic in creating spaces for themselves, breaking barriers for generations to come.
What kind of life would you like to have?
Where can our readers keep up with your work and get connected with you? I post all of my latest international covers and high fashion editorials on my business Instagram account,
It’s mostly used to showcase my published work and you can find numerous links to my interviews/biographies. My linktree account is also on my page, you can read and purchase my latest mag azine covers, available in print and digital worldwide.
What is the most challenging part of being a model?
Apart from being on the cover of many inter national magazines, my biggest achievement is investing in myself. I made it my mission to dedicate my time in reaching my full potential and in doing so, I gained further success. I practice daily mindfulness and my competitive nature helps me thrive. I’m very goal oriented, I work extremely hard in manifesting and ac complishing what I want to achieve.
What are the achievements you are proud of most today?
Yes, absolutely. Modeling taught me to al ways have a schedule in place, even on my days off. I like to utilize my time wisely and this includes periods where I get to enjoy my own company too. I love studying edi torials and reading fashion books.
It’s more of a work in progress than a chal lenge. I strive in loving every part of myself, it’s important for me to maintain a healthy life

What keeps you excited about life in general?
Being an international model excites me, you get opportunities to work with many different artists. To travel for a living is also a dream come true, not only are you working but you’re exploring cities and learning about new cul tures. It’s a blessing to be able to do what you love.
