A native of Lebanon, Amal Sarieddine is continuing the impeccable fashion design legacy of her mother, Nawal Sarieddine, who established her own fashion house over forty years ago. Amal credits a good portion of her success in the highly-competitive fashion industry to the distinctive sewing, embroidery and embellishment techniques she learned from her mother.

“I use the traditional and authentic techniques of older generations of tailors,” she says, “in contrast with the new reliance on assembly-line production and outsourcing of embroidery and assembly to China or India.”

Ms. Sarieddine’s atelier preserves this heritage with experienced tailors — many of whom began their careers under her mother — passing their knowledge on to the younger generation.
