New Technique
Fathy’s new collection consists of 10 pieces; she managed to mix the traditional Arabic stitching with modern practical and casual designs.
Moreover, she used Hand-made accessories, knoll embroidery to decorate pieces of cloth.
She presented old fashion in a simpler and lighter form after it was known to be heavy. It is now more valuable.
