Mr. Khansa’s fashion talent goes beyond a passion for fabric or color; his designs are a statement of femininity, elegance, charm, and the embodiment of a woman’s constant quest to be unique and personalize her presence. Mr. Khansa has shaped his vision of fashion by taming nature’s diversity and customizing it in a classic original silhouette to fit every woman’s perception of beauty.
“A woman’s beauty is portrayed through her heritage, culture, and tradition,” says the designer. “I strive to capture that essence and sew it to perfection one stitch at a time. I am inspired by meeting and dressing women from America, Europe, Africa, Australia, and the Middle East.”
As a young designer, Mr. Khansa was invited to be the first Lebanese designer to show at Couture Fashion Week New York where he presented his Fall/Winter 2005-2006 collection to rave reviews. That year he was honored by the event as the “Fashion Designer of the Year” for his collection.
