Today, I am going to tell you about the first fashion school مدرسة للموضة in Egypt. One of our Arabic page fans asked to share its Facebook page and website. The school has a unique project مشروع that was initiated by some Egyptian young women and which I find very interesting. The school’s project is mainly focused on cultural development التطور الثقافىwith the purpose of offering media production services  خدمات الانتاج الاعلامى  , developing skills تنمية المهارات and organizing exhibitions تنظيم المعارض  and festivals المهرجانات . They also offer a Fashion Diploma to those who are interested.

      The mission of the school’s project is to “seek the Egyptian roots”. That is why they have given their website and facebook page that name “Gozoor” which is an Arabic word meaning “roots جذور /gozoor/”. They do believe that knowing the roots of any nation is very important because “the starting point in any society مجتمع is to know itself”. The project is directed to help Egyptians to better understand their society and to be well-aware of their heritage التراث and culture الثقافة through digging deep into the roots of what is pure Egyptian and what is not. Better understanding of any society helps its people to be well-aware of its existence وجود which in turn helps them to effectively plan and shape its present الحاضر and future المستقبل . As they put it on their mission; “man should have enough knowledge معرفة of his homeland’s history تاريخ as well as identity الهوية and heritage.” The project can also be of great interest to non-Egyptians who are interested in studying or learning about the Egyptian fashion or those who are seeking a certificate شهادة on that topic.

     The project has four main dimensions أبعاد each of which emphasizes the Egyptian identity and promotes the culture of the Egyptian traditional costume. The developers are interested in researching the standards of true Egyptian fashion. They try to reach the taste الذوق of the Egyptian public. They evaluate their taste and way of dress طريقة اللبس .

     The Gozoor website has a very good and friendly and relaxing interface واجهة with more than forty picture background slide-show that takes your breath. The documentary section on the website shows a video that summarizes the transformations التحولات of the Egyptian costumes الأزياء during the past 100 years up till the present time.
