The following collection will be vibrant and have a sensual modern vibe. His life story has served as an inspiration to several others. He began his career as an Uber driver, driving for 12 hours per day, and his first venture into the fashion sector was as the owner of a women's clothes store in his hometown.

On speaking to the media, he said “Making clothes is an art, It has been my dream. Every new project has a story and inspires me to do better in the future.” He further added, “My decision to leave my job as an engineer and geologist has proved to be a life changing decision and each second I feel grateful for that decision.”
Many say Usama is a role model and exemplifies what it means to work hard. His peers admire him for his dedication to his profession and the industry. From his arrival in Los Angeles to confronting the reality of life, he has risen to every occasion. “It’s not always easy, especially in the beginning. I had to save every penny. Sometimes I would see myself working 36 hours non-stop between Uber and my first product line.”, he added. His first accomplishment was dressing up Eve for an Autism Speaks event. This was a watershed moment in his development, and there was no turning back. To know more one can visit his website or follow him on instagram.
