In 2019, he started his modelling career, working with local Jordanian Brands, Like FNL.co, Over the span of 2 years, Qassim has been seen in multiple appearances on international Vogue magazine pages, including Vogue Poland. After his experience over these years, Qassim gained more attention and started working with more famous labels, where he was seen modeling for brands like “Etro” and “Trashy clothing”, that featured Qassim, in top world magazines including, Vogue, and W magazine. With this experience, and his move from Amman to London, he had his first debut in London Fashion week under the Event “Fashion show live”.
Hamza Qassim worked with the Palestinian label Trashy Clothing’s summer 2021 campaign: Lawrence and Braika included kitschy odes to the Arab pop stars whom they consider to be gay icons of the early aughts, including Lebanese entertainer Haifa Wehbe, Egyptian singer Sherihan, and Maria, an Armenian Lebanese pop star. “They expressed their sexual side, which, while growing up, was so new. As queer people, we saw them claiming their sexuality and their bodies, and their lyrics and their voice,” says Lawrence. Many of the pieces in Trashy Clothing’s latest collection are inspired by these music videos, including a sleeveless tank and red pants culled from Wehbe’s “Ebn El Halal.” Sherihan’s face is also printed on a T-shirt and leggings, while Maria’s face appears on a skirt.
The AW22 collection from Tod’s was a celebration of Italian beauty. Creative director Walter Chiapponi aimed to reimagine icons of Italian beauty, transforming them into modern, versatile objects for everyday use. Italian heritage reverberates in this collection’s aesthetic research, examining Italy’s culture, highlighting tradition that has always been rooted in the mission of Tod’s. After taking over from Daniel Lee in November, Matthieu Blazy’s first collection for Bottega Veneta certainly made for one of the most highly anticipated shows of the season. Through it, Blazy addressed the question ‘What makes Bottega Veneta?’ Bottega Veneta is in essence pragmatic because it is a leather goods company, said Blazy. Because it specialises in bags it is about movement, of going somewhere; there is fundamentally an idea of craft in motion. It is style over fashion in its timelessness. That is part of its quiet power.
At Balenciaga, number four on our list, Demna originally hoped to address the intensifying anxieties of global warming. But the escalating crisis in Ukraine utterly changed his meaning. Balenciaga’s climate refugees with their leather garbage bags suddenly looked like war refugees. Having fled Georgia as a young boy when Russia invaded that country in 1993, Demna considered canceling the show, but ultimately decided to carry on. “Personally, I have sacrificed too much to war,” he said. “We must resist.” His cinematic presentation, set in a snow globe with models’ long dresses and long hair shuddering in the wind, produced the season’s most stirring visuals, and the catharsis that many of his followers were longing for.
The Palestinian Fashion Collectives was another presentation for Hamza Qassim in 2021: In spring of 2021, Gaza and East Jerusalem saw their worst bout of violence in seven years, with thousands of injuries and a death toll that disproportionately affected Palestinians. The world witnessed the events with fury, watching the tragedy unfold during the Muslim Holy Month of Ramadan. The occupied land tucked alongside the coast of Palestine was again under attack—a site of conflict and battle since the early twentieth century. For decades, the ache of oppression has embedded itself in the psyche of the Palestinian people—studies prove Palestinians are at particularly high risk of experiencing anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of political and societal discrimination.
