Eight questions with .. Rosemin Manji
1 – How would you describe your personal style?
Classic, feminine with a twist of trend
2 – You’ll never get caught wearing …
Probably Crocs
3 – What’s your favourite part of your job?
My job varies to be honest, and I like that one day I can be presenting/hosting on TV and next day modelling for a brand.
One of the recurrent questions I get asked is “Who are your clients ?”
At a time when algorithms are shaping our ideas of “what is trending”, with images that encourage consumerist urges and trigger different ideas of Luxury, not to forget the latest beauty standards that somehow turned their back on Nature’s gifts..
Well, as a fashion designer and maker I do live every business milestone as a victory amidst that self-imposed digital system that has blurred the paths to success for newcomers, but also impaired older labels in their digital transition. A new system that influences towards immediate validation instead of sustainable growth, therefore I live every client purchase as a moment of grace 🙂 I have added a new blog section on my site called “Eight Questions with..” where I get to present wonder women who have shown support to my brand, whether since the early days or more recently.
I’m starting “Eight Questions with..” with Mrs. Rosemin Manji @roseminsworld , Digital Influencer and Founder – Managing Director of RR&Co. Bespoke Luxury Management, leading luxury consultancy firm in the Middle East.
4 – What is the best advice you’ve been given?
There is no such thing as failure, it’s a way to tell that you are in the wrong direction so learn your lesson and get back on the right path !
5 – Who are your heroes?
I would say people I respect and admire for their contribution to society and making me a better person
The Aga Khan
Oprah
Ellen
Barak and Michelle Obama
My Mom
6- What is one thing people would be surprised to know about you?
One thing I do love is really relaxing at home. I love curling up on the couch and watching tonight show with Jimmy Fallon or Big little lies
7 – What are you currently working on?
I’m working on next season of She’ s Mercedes women’s empowerment campaign, Harper’s Bazaar Arabia “House of Bazaar” in October, and shooting for Roberto Coin jewellery fall campaign
8 – What do you love most about your “nadine mneimneh” pieces?
When I shop I’m only interested in good cuts and fabrics, and that’s the ethos of her brand.It reminds me of pieces I own from Alber Elbaz from 10-15 years ago and still have them.
