Egyptian actress, Yosra El Lozy shared Tuesday a series of photos of herself on Instagram.

In the post, she also raised awareness of a fashion label that used fashion as a tool for social and inpidual change.

She noted that with every collection, the label collaborates with an organization that is relevant to the social issue they’re addressing.

'For their current collection, the collaboration is with @did_egypt , a project by Al Nour wel Amal. They have joined forces to raise awareness for the visually impaired and blind by creating 2 special edition designs where their proceeds are donated to DID Egypt," El Lozy noted.

El Lozy added that the collaboration doesn’t end there, noting that the label is working on the accessibility of their products by including a braille card with each product packaging so that those who are visually impaired are able to independently choose and shop.

"It’s all about empathy, understanding, and awareness,'  concluded.

El Lozy is set to participate in Ramadan 2021 with TV series “Bayn El Samaa Wa El Ard” (Between Heaven and Earth).

The series consists of 15 episodes and also stars Hani Salama, Yosra El Lozy, Mohamed Tharwat, Mahmoud Ellithy, Naglaa Badr, Nada Moussa, Ahmed Bedier, Sawsan Badr, Nourhan, and others.

“Bayn El Samaa Wa El Ard” is written by Eslam Hafez, directed by Mandu Al-Adl, and produced by Synergy Production Company.

The upcoming production is adapted from a novel of the same title by Egyptian international writer Naguib Mahfouz.

In 1960, the novel was turned into a film starring an A-list cast, including Hind Rostom, Abdel Moneim Ibrahim, Mahmoud El Meleigy, and Abdelmonem Madbouly.

The plot revolves around a group of strangers who gets stuck together in an elevator. Each has a different story and purpose in life, including an actress, a madman, thieves, a woman about to in labor, a juvenile old man, and others.
