A letter from editor
s human beings we tend to lose patience easily but suddenly dedicate our focus to be patient and not be afraid to lose patience, we possibly make things work better, have better results and no conflicting reactions negative. Whatever the situation that you pass through in a matter of losing or not the patience, you should make a limit to your patience and everything and not ask for seconds.
A floor manager who wanted everything too fast not only lost employees also eventually lost his job for his impatience and arrogance. Impatience is very unpleasant when lost in team groups, impatience has been the cause of divorce, lost job, accidents etc. Impatience is a response to fear. The fear never accomplish anything that you're carrying forward, for example, or the fear of missing something important or interesting. At any rate, is the fear that you will not be able to get something that you think you need and that do not currently have. This fear response (which will never happen) leads to a desire to control not only the result but how this will be achieved.

M
odel/Spokes person I was born in Karachi, Pakistan, to an army officer. I am the youngest of 4 children. My parents had migrated to Karachi in search of a better life for themselves and their children. We did not have much but my father and mother always taught us to never give up on our dreams and how anything was possible with hard work and education. He would say education was even more important for girls in Pakistan than boys. To most Pakistanis when it comes to most things and especially higher education, focus is on boys not girls. As I graduated to Secondary school from Primary, this became clear to me. All the girls were prepped to get married at a young age while parents planned to spend their savings on the boys’ education. I did not want to get married after just a Primary School education, I wanted to go to University, be financially independent, think freely and contribute to society. I wanted more for my
VOMC STYLE
life. Deep down I knew that is what I wanted for myself and that was also what my father wanted for me. All the time as a young girl I dreamt of being a fashion model watching shows and events on American television. I posed like the models I saw and daydreamed about being on the runway and infront of cameras. Although, I had my dreams their were many obstacles in the way and I had to put those dreams on hold and in the back of my mind. I did move forward with my education and attended the historic Indus Valley School of Art and Architecture in Karachi, graduating with a major in Painting and minor in Photography in 2005. I organized workshops for local artists’ work, taught classes to young children in local schools. I was even a Vice Principal at the Montessori Resource Center in Karachi. Years ago I was recruited by a talent agent wanting me to become a runway and print model in Dubai. I unfortunately, could not move forward because of coming from an Islamic background and from a military family. I put my dream on hold once again.

THE OUTBREAK
In 2009 my father lost his life to violence in Pakistan. This was a catalyst for change. I knew my life would change and would be continued in America. I travelled to the United States on my own and attended Montclair State University in New Jersey, receiving my Masters in Fine Arts with 3.5/4.0 GPA. While living and supporting myself on my own in New York City an unexpected but welcomed event happened. I was approached by David Alan Kogut a fashion photographer that requested I test with him. This reignited my passion once again for the modeling industry and since then I have been moving forward, 100% dedicated to the profession. I am determined to not put my desires on hold once again. My focus now is to bring attention to women young and old to fight for their dreams, inspire them and become a successful role model.

Designers Shaikha Noor Al-Khalifa and Shaikha Haya Al-Khalifa were inspired by the 1920s garcon look for this new collection, while also reflecting natural environments. The beautiful colors, minerals, and natural crystals stimulate to create a dramatic effect in the garments. Cloud formations, crystalline structures, and geometric patterns seen in minerals are translated into the brand’s signature prints. The dresses are elaborate and glamorous. Hints of masculine tailoring are balanced with femi-

nized pants (like burgundy print, yellow, and blue capri) to create sporty, effortless daywear. This season the designers expanded their eveningwear repertoire, focusing on exquisite detail and unexpected fabric combinations. Luxurious outerwear is realized in the form of mauve felt and beige faux fur as well as a strikingly embellished black evening coat. Colors enriching this collection include ice blue, cool mint, mauve, navy, burgundy, and vanilla, with pops of yellow, chartreuse, and royal purple. Texture is explored by combining felt and faux fur, chiffon and heavy crepe, as well as leather and felt. This sophisticated assortment carries an atmosphere of feminism that has transformed this line of womenswear into an exquisite collection.

Katya Zol: The Elements Of Mongolia By Kenneth John Edited By Elijah Krenik Manhattan, New York – In February 2014, at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, Katya Zol debuted her fall 2014 collection “Katya Zol: Mongolia”. Zol’s design is influenced by her heritage and utilizes innovative design techniques. Her debut at MBFW was dramatic. Before the show, Mongolian performers created a sophisticated and beautiful presentation on the stage. An exotic singer showed the sensuality and beauty of her voice, and an acrobatic dancer performed different extraordinary moves. The gymnastic movements required his intense strength and flexibility, leading to stellar performances. But that was only the beginning. The collection was sensual, form fitting, and luxurious. The traditional Mongolian girl can wear futuristic and edgy designs. Many of these garments are wearable and practical for everyday wear but with an elegant look. Some dresses included one adorned with flowers, handmade from rope in a

traditional manner; others featured long knit designs, colorful jackets, and gorgeous fur. Mongolian fabrics like cashmere, wool, silk, and leather draped the floor. The diverse colors of the collection are pastel, nude, grey, and brown. The garments change in a very feminist way because of the gold accessories and luxury jewelry. “Through my fashion collections, which come from my heart and soul, I hope to bring joy to people. I love to expose and share with the rest of the world my imagination, passion for my culture and its artistry, perseverance, determination, and aspiration for quality and refinement”, says Katya. “Being accepted by IMG to participate at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is an honor that I take very seriously as a realization of my life-long dream”. One special guest was Janice Dickinson, a supermodel and former judge on “America’s Next Top Model”. The presentation was intense. I saw Mongolia represented with a particular vision. Katya is an amazing designer that can transform the fashion industry with her concepts.

Parkchoonmoo: The Futuristic Chic Look By Kenneth John Edited By Elijah Krenik Manhattan, New York – Designer Choonmoo Park is an icon of modern style. In February, she showed the fall 2014 collection of her Parkchoonmoo label during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, featuring many futuristic elements, structured with fluid silhouettes. For her 25 year anniversary, she has been inspired by one question: “What is design to me personally?” She found the name De’Moo, literally meaning “from zero” or “out of nothing”. Then the magnificent creations began. This season is a re-interpretation of her old collections. These amazing contrasts seem to neutralize each other. The designer uses different iconic fabrics in an

almost cubist way. These fabrics include alpaca, lamb leather, beaver, cashmere-fused felts, wool, and organic cotton. The colors are predominantly navy blue, black and white, and camel brown, with hints of carmine red. Oversized coats, fitted pants and long skirts dominate the collection. The line featured a range of outerwear, long coats, and puffy jackets. She fascinatingly used the zipper detailing and unique collared outerwear to make standout pieces. Modernism is definitely a big part of Parkchoonmoo’s fall 2014 season, which successfully encompasses an edgy and wearable collection that the designer has been carving out over the past 25 years.

Washing with hot water is very common across the world, because hot water has been found to kill germs and clean clothes much better than warm or cool water. However, hot water can also increase the risk of colors bleeding in the wash. For soiled clothing, don’t go above a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius, and for clothes that aren’t physically dirty but are in need of a freshen up, an even cooler wash will suffice. Basically, opt for as cool a wash as you can get away with.

GLOWING ROCK ST AR
(ROCK MINERALS ) All minerals can reflect light. That is the thing that makes them obvious to the human eye. A couple of minerals have a fascinating physical property known as “fluorescence”. These minerals can briefly ingest a little measure of light and a moment later discharge a little measure of light of an alternate wavelength. This change in wavelength causes a brief shade change of the mineral in the eye of a human onlooker.
