The choreography in this moment emerged from the idea of juggling balance ,
the movement we all perform in suspended moments,
trying to keep going while held by an invisible force that defies gravity.

In this space, @karimamansour_official movement became the soul of the garments.
And the silhouette  layered, fringed, elongated 
became the body of her movement. by @waksa__

Very happy and proud to share that ‘I Just Need a Minute!’ will have its World Premiere at the 45th Uppsala Short Film Festival, as part of the International Competition. 🥹❤️

فرحانة وفخورة جدًا إن «ثانية واحدة» بياخد أول خطوة في رحلته، بعرضه العالمي الأول ضمن المسابقة الدولية للدورة الـ45 من مهرجان أوبسالا الدولي للفيلم القصير.

Being my first film as a director, it holds a very special place in my heart, and it feels incredibly special to see it leave our hands and meet an audience for the first time. ✨

So much love and gratitude to the wonderful cast and crew who brought this film to life with me. Thank you for your trust, your work, and everything you gave to it. ❤️

Reclaiming The Future
 
In a stripped, post-apocalyptic world, nothing is accidental.
We draw from Egyptian heritage not to preserve it, but to rebuild it. Tradition is no longer sacred, it is reshaped, redefined, reclaimed. Power lives in control. Identity is chosen, not inherited. This is a world that remembers its past, but refuses to be bound by it.

The ordinary was never an option. With its inaugural issue, Blade Middle East introduces a new vision of men’s fashion where sharp tailoring, fearless individuality, and unapologetic attitude take center stage. Fronting our first-ever cover, @HassanElRaddad steps into a darker, more daring frame where elegance carries an edge and every detail becomes a statement. This is the man who doesn’t follow trends; he transforms them. Welcome to a new chapter of style. THE NEW OUTLAW.

Rules were never made to last forever.

Blade Middle East arrives with its first-ever issue, introducing a new era of men’s fashion where elegance is fearless, attitude is everything, and individuality becomes the ultimate statement.

On our inaugural cover, @HassanElRaddad steps into a darker, sharper universe. Through architectural tailoring, monochrome intensity, and an unapologetic attitude, he embodies a man who refuses to follow the codes because he creates his own.

This is not a rebellion against fashion, It is the evolution of it.

Welcome to Blade Middle East. Cut 01 

THE NEW OUTLAW.

@HassanElRaddad closes Soul Arabia’s The Silent Force trilogy with a portrait of a man who no longer measures himself by applause, but by awareness, clarity, and inner balance. In this final cover, strength feels quieter, deeper, and more intentional — a reflection of a journey where ambition evolves into perspective and success finds meaning beyond the spotlight. Hassan represents the moment when confidence no longer needs to be proven, only lived, and where presence becomes the truest form of power. Discover the final cover of The Silent Force issue, now on Soul Arabia. Link in bio.

يختتم النجم #حسن_الرداد  ثلاثية القوة الصامتة من #سول_العربية بصورة لرجل لم يعد يقيس نفسه بالتصفيق، بل بالوعي والاتزان والوضوح الداخلي. في هذا الغلاف الأخير، تبدو القوة أكثر هدوءًا وعمقًا، كترجمة لرحلة تحوّل فيها الطموح إلى منظور، ووجد فيها النجاح معناه خارج الأضواء. يجسّد حسن اللحظة التي لا تعود فيها الثقة بحاجة إلى إثبات، بل إلى عيشها، حيث يصبح الحضور هو أقوى أشكال القوة. اكتشفوا الغلاف الأخير من عدد القوة الصامتة الآن على سول العربية.

Egyptian actor @HassanElRaddad takes the cover of Soul Arabia’s The Silent Force issue at a moment where success meets self-awareness. “I deeply believe that all the valuable and important things for a human being, money can’t buy. The most important thing is that a person is content and understands life.” Hassan represents a form of masculinity shaped by experience, responsibility, and emotional clarity. The Silent Force is about the power that grows when ambition softens into perspective, and public success meets private grounding. Discover the new cover The Silent Force Issue, now on Soul Arabia. Link in bio.

يتصدر الممثل المصري #حسن_الرداد غلاف عدد القوة الصامتة من #سول_العربية في لحظة يلتقي فيها النجاح بالوعي الذاتي. “أؤمن بشدة أن كل الأشياء القيمة والمهمة في حياة الإنسان لا يمكن شرائها. أهم شيء أن يكون الإنسان راضياً ويفهم الحياة.” يمثل حسن نموذجاً للرجولة التي تشكّلت عبر التجربة والمسؤولية والوضوح العاطفي. القوة الصامتة هي القوة التي تنمو عندما يهدأ الطموح ليصبح رؤية، وعندما يلتقي النجاح بالاتزان الداخلي. اكتشفوا غلاف عدد القوة الصامتة من سول العربية الرابط في البايو.

Contradiction, carries an internal harmony of its own,it emerges only when you stop judging by familiar standards. by @waksa__

Downtown Cairo has a sound I know by heart ,
the creak of old wooden elevators,the slide of black iron doors,balcony fences breathing with the wind. And then the Azan rises ,cutting through traffic horns, footsteps, engines,mixing the sacred with the everyday.
And somewhere in between,
the voice of Umm Kulthum plays endlessly 
from cafés, taxis, workshops and open windows.
Sounds that stretch time
and make the city feel suspended.
These memories turn into texture for me: patina browns, sculptural blacks,
silhouettes that carry the weight of old stone façades.
Downtown has a scent too 
ahwa, tobacco, warm marble staircases.That atmosphere becomes form: earthy surfaces, raw edges,
clothes that feel lived in, not styled.
This is how I read the city.
