Meet Mai Galal, the visionary stylist who has revolutionized Egypt's fashion landscape through her extraordinary career spanning decades. Far from an overnight success, Mai's journey began with a needle and thread at age eight, crafting homemade outfits for her Barbie dolls and transforming orange peels into artistic expressions. That same creative spirit would eventually lead her to style Egypt's most prestigious event in recent history – the globally televised Pharaohs Parade.
In our conversation, Mai opens up about navigating her "double life" – balancing the glamour of high-profile styling with the grounded reality of motherhood. She shares intimate details of her morning routine, which transformed after a health scare forced her to become more present and mindful in her daily life. Rather than following trendy 10-step skincare routines, Mai swears by what she calls "ancient Egyptian remedies" – olive oil, black seed oil, and simple traditional approaches that have stood the test of time.
Mai has styled everyone from iconic Egyptian stars Mona Zaki, Youssra, and Angham, to Amina Khalil, Nelly Karim, Yasmin Sabri and more.

I have a way, the lucky I,she's normal, normal, okay,
that's great.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Now I want to ask you something.
We talked briefly.
Before we started.
You had a year, which was 2021,approximately this year.
There were a lot of things thathappened in Maya Galal's career
Generally, before we get intothe Pharaohs Parade and all the
things that happened this year,I want to know you and you young
(11:45):
people, let's go back.
Before we get into thePharaoh's Parade and all the
things that happened this year,I want to know you and you are
young, let's go back.
Did you always like to wear?
Did you always like fashion?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Or did this sort of happen when you grew up a little
?
No, I mean, I see that I wasborn with a needle in my hand,
like Cinderella.
With a needle in my hand, likeCinderella, I'm serious, because
I never realized that until Igrew up.
And I have girls and kids.
So when you say you don't knowwhat the buttons are, you're
(12:16):
wrong.
So for her, what does it mean?
What does it mean?
So I've been sewing since I was8 years old.
The idea of the things we hearis serious.
The idea that I have Barbies andrings.
I take them and start.
I take any shirt from my momand I cut the shape of the dress
(12:38):
.
And I start sewing it by hand.
I was making a top for myself,a simple top.
I thought it was a halter neckand I made it myself.
I made a top for myself.
The top is simple.
It's a halter neck.
I cut it With a needle and athread.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
So you're really born like this.
You have love and honor.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
I love art when.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
I was still.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I used to peel an orange.
I'll eat it.
You peel the orange and thepeel is like slices.
I start with the slices with aknife, I make a shape star, I
make a heart.
Sometimes I make a play With at-shirt and pants and we put
them on top of each other.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
So everything you're doing is creative.
Yes, I love it.
I feel like you're one of thosepeople.
When you meet someone, you feellike You're passionately,
you're dressed in a way thatmakes you happy and you feel
like you carry it well andyou're dressed in a way that
makes you feel If I want thistoo, definitely.
But I want to ask you somethingwhen was the moment that you
(13:43):
felt or knew about our jobcalled stylist?
Because I think that this issuein the region, for example, is
known more than the past yearsfrom a stylist like you Proved
that this job or this job can bevery, very successful.
So when did you know aboutsomething called styling?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
So when did you know about styling?
Look, I'm lucky that Mona Zaki,she's my cousin and she's my
sister.
We've been living together inthe same building all our lives,
yes, and she's an actress sinceshe was little.
So since I was little, I usedto watch, right, or with my aunt
and mom, we used to go to thetheater and film.
So I used to watch, yes, andthere wasn't anything stylist.
(14:26):
There was an idea of a costumedesigner For movies, for the
films that are needed, for thefilms that are needed, like
Nahed Nasra, the film theImmigrant, the Fate, films that
are needed For someone to be adesigner.
But normal films are made by adecor artist who is responsible
for the clothes and stuff, right, so when a movie starts, you
(14:48):
start buying a lot of clothes Toshow the decorator If there's a
costume or something.
So I was watching this and itwas amazing.
It was really nice and I wantedto enter In beautiful rooms
Because there's drawing andstuff.
And then I didn't enter Inbeautiful rooms.
I didn't pass the drawing exam.
I'm a senior and I draw well,but it happens, it happens.
(15:10):
So I entered at that time inEnglish literature but I said no
, I will also work the job thatI love From here.
One by one, the idea of thestylist began to be there.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
When.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I, for I finish school, I go to university.
There used to be a stylist.
I used to see that Mona went toa movie and there is a stylist
and Mona sees the clothes andthe stylist Watches the clothes
at home and cleans.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
And there is something that created this job
and became something that Ireally needed.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
I started working in university.
I started working with NahidNasrallah.
I worked with her as anassistant On the professional
level, not just watching at home.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
We do it.
What was the first film orfirst Work you felt in styling
that you felt would be yourcareer?
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Look, the first film I made made me a criminal.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
It was made by Ghada Adel and Ahmed, helmy and Abdul
Ghafoor and Edward.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I was very happy when I made it.
It was directed by Amr Arafaand Amr was standing next to me
and I didn't know anything.
He was Mohamed Amin, a decorartist, and he was, I mean, for
him.
It could have been A mess and amess, but I swear I was with
him Before the half-life.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
So you were holding the film from the beginning to
the end and styling it.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
And when I first started I was very afraid that
would be working in the middleand I would only work with Mona.
And what would I do?
I wouldn't work with Mona sothat people wouldn't say that
I'm coming with a bag Right.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
And that's a normal feeling, I mean generally.
But I feel that you I mean overthe years and my life, I mean,
I've been working for 20 years.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
I didn't work with Mona except two movies.
Right, in the 20 years, I'venever worked with Mona except
for two movies.
True, in the 20 years I'veworked with many other people,
with Amir Carrara, with AhmedHelmi.
I don't want to get into that.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You've worked with everyone.
Let's be real You've workedwith everyone, not just, of
course, mona Zaki.
We love her.
We got the icon.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
She's my idol, I love her.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Her style is amazing.
Everything, everything.
But you worked on a very longlist.
You guys Okay Yusra AnghemMonazaki, amina Khalil Nally,
kareem Amir Karara, ahmed Helmi,ismin Sabri, many, many, many
more.
I mean, I feel like there's noone.
Honestly, my galil didn't style, but I want to know you're a
(17:45):
celebrity, you have yourpersonality, your style, your
style.
How do you prepare to work withall the different personalities
?
Do you have any process?
Do you have a specific way?
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Look, with time, when I learned the know-how Of our
work, yes, look your way withCelebrities is very important,
like talent yes, the sameimportance, because if your way
Is not flexible, you willconvince them with clothes
(18:21):
Exactly.
If you talk to one of yourfriends and she wants to tell
her that this top is not nice,she probably won't believe you
and if she likes it, it will beperfect and that this bag is
better than this.
You know what I mean, or you'regoing to convince them with a
look?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
It's very difficult because this dress is very
intimate, something that isclose to my eyes, one of the
most important things I feel.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Yes, so it vision is very important.
Sometimes you can be sotalented Like a stylist, but you
don't have the way to convincethem.
Yes, convince them.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
This is the most, most thing I hear and the
hardest thing, by the way, isher personality, definitely.
And what else?
For example, a film or a look?
Actually, you did it.
You felt your audience, it wasblown away.
You felt it was something smalland it went viral.
Really, what is this question?
The question is More thananything, for example.
(19:26):
These are two things, becauseyou did a lot of things.
Okay, tell me.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Okay, I'll tell you.
Because there are a lot ofthings I'm thinking about.
For example, now I'll tell yousomething.
Everything depends on the time,okay, because there are things.
There are things that are outthese two days, or fashion.
So there are things that arevery popular these days, so
they're happy and they like it.
If the role space as movies Isuseful to make this or make the
(19:53):
fashion.
So you always look at it andyou think to yourself why not be
like her or like him?
But I don't know, tell me.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Think a little.
Maya Nelly Karim.
Recently you styled her forsomething.
It was incredible.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Red carpets, red carpets, these are different
from movies.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Red carpets, look, I feel that this is more time.
You can go Really glam.
Yes, you can go crazy, right ornot?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Look glam, but not crazy.
I will tell you this crazy, youcan go crazy for the photo
shoots.
Okay, but the red carpet.
No, the red carpet.
People came out on the redcarpet In a nice way, and
they're Nelly Karim, for real,amina Khalil, for real.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Not a character.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
And people want to watch them and they look nice
the people you love.
So you want to make them lookas nice as possible.
Star, really, exactly, ifthey're stars, you want to make
them look as nice as possibleand as much as people like them,
because if people don't likethem, there will be a lot of
criticism, a lot, because ifpeople don't like it, there will
(21:04):
be a lot of criticism, a lot.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Some people cried a lot.
We can talk about this topic.
Actually, this is really hard,but okay, give me a couple of
red carpet looks, for example, alot of love.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Look, the love for this year was the gown.
It was expensive, yes, it was,thank God.
I can't say I did a good job.
I was telling you my turn.
The feedback was always used tobe that there are bad things.
Or I like it, but most peopledon't agree with it and you
don't like them.
And Facebook groups.
(21:37):
And girls and sometimes ithurts a lot, but thank God they
were saying that I liked all thethings, so I was very happy.
I felt it went really well.
I felt it went very well andsuccess, so I was very happy.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
How do you read all these criticisms?
Do you read the difficultcomments or do you make them a
blog?
I mean, yeah, especially if youwear Mona.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Sometimes people say it's the best time to wear it
when you wear it with you, andwe know that you do.
The comments are amazing.
In the same group, you findthat she has to change the style
(22:36):
, not because she entered it andI didn't see it Say it and
that's it Exactly.
I can tell you something.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
The most thing I felt on social media.
I don't have eyes.
Tell me what you want Exactly.
I don't have to, by the way.
I can tell you something.
The most thing I feel In socialmedia Is that Negative comments
Depending on the platform.
For example, tiktok has a lotmore negativity Than other
platforms.
Instagram is normal, facebookIs also fine, but depending on
the platform, people are morenegative or the audience is
positive.
But I feel In fashion it's morecritical.
But according to the platform,people will be negative more or
(23:05):
the audience positive.
But I feel that in fashion it'smore critical than anything
else.
They take the outfit andseparate it.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Even if it has a nice part, I don't know.
But I'm just saying within theprocess, when I choose a design
or something with a celebritydesigner, for example I don't
know what color it is I tellthem no, no, no, he'll put the
signature or the signature orthe letter of the person you
already know.
Yes, I really start thinkingabout where the way will come
(23:34):
from, so that you avoid it?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
No, but I'll tell you something.
I really feel that the more youbecome resilient, the more you
feel that you won't hear thisand continue.
That's what makes you reachthings, incredible things that
we can't imagine, like, forexample, the Pharaoh's parade.
Let's talk about the Pharaoh'sparade.
I think this was one of themost iconic moments in the
(24:01):
history of fashion, media andadvertising in Egypt from the
last 3-4 years, which is I wantyou to tell me.
How did this happen?
Who told you when?
How did you know you would bethe stylist for the parade?
Speaker 2 (24:15):
The Ferris parade is a turning point in my life,
Khaled Azam.
I always thank him for givingme this opportunity to be
present and be with him, becausehe already had his own.
And then he said I want to bewith us.
It's a very, very big project.
(24:37):
I'll bring someone else to be astylist.
And he said May Galil, and wedidn't know each other, we're
not friends, hi.
Just more than that.
And then we started workingtogether and he's not just my
best friend right now, he's mybrother.
(24:58):
So, we became very close friendsand it was for me.
I didn't realize the extent ofwhat we're doing, but I know
that it's a big thing and weknow that the whole world will
be watching and we know that atthis time in the meetings they
(25:19):
were explaining to us what willhappen, and so on, until we
started the provost.
So in the provost, wow, withthe numbers, With the sizes, you
know you work in something.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
And you worked and work in a company that you've
worked in for months.
I don't notice the scale.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I know you have a lot of work and everything and I
hope you pass it, but I don'trealize it.
Until the day of the show, Iwas in one place and Khaled was
in another, and the rest of theteam was in other places,
(25:57):
because we were in Egypt.
The event was happening InEgypt, yes and live.
When it was over, I started toopen.
We finished.

Khaled on the phone.
Before that we weren't, becausethere was.

You were afraid of what.
There was something, one of thepeople who will be, who are the
big numbers who are walking inthe parade itself.
He was wearing a sneaker and Idon't know what.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
And he took something from the things like that and
he and a pair of jeans.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
The picture was taken in a very different way.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
He wasn't wearing any clothes, he was wearing jeans.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
He was still in the rehearsal.
The boy was probably walking.
He just put something on hisshirt.
The rest of his clothes werenormal.
What a story.
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,

Speaker 2 (27:09):
Okay, for 9 months I'm not doing anything else in
my life Other than that.
And there are people, theimaginary, the people who will
open the door of the museum, thedancers, the pyramids Of Khof
and Khafra, the pyramids of Giza, the pyramids of Saqqara, the
(27:30):
temples in Luxor, the operasingers, exactly.
There are, of course, othercelebrities in the talks and
things.
What are they going to wear?
What are we going to do?
Of course they want Egyptiandesigners.
They want Arab designers aswell.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
And you were one of the people who were pushing for
this.
There must be Egyptiandesigners.
There must be Arab designers.
Yes, me and Khaled you andKhaled, yes of course, but you
were here the day before andwhen the parade ended, when it
ended, you opened the phone.
I opened the phone.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
You found the whole world.
I opened the phone.
I opened Facebook first.
Okay, facebook, sometimes thereare things More than Instagram.
You see the book, more Facebook.
(28:26):
A picture of her was in a groupof Angie Aboud and they wrote
how she was chic and beautiful.
So I started scrolling.
I found pictures from theparade and people were talking
(28:47):
amazing things.
So I took a break.
I was at the Museum in the cityof Hadarat.
I found DMC.
They do interviews.
They do interviews with Iman AlHosari.
I started talking to my sister,father and husband.
They started saying that we areso proud and everyone was happy
(29:09):
.
I know they always say Nicethings, but I told them People
say I like it, it's nice.
I told Khaled you heardsomething, khaled.
You heard.
Everything is good.
We did a great job, khaled.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yes, Not only did you do A great job, I think it was.
Egypt watched the parade.
The whole world Watched theparade.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Things that was.
I think I really really, reallyraised my head in the parade.
In a weird way, it was aturning point in my career, in
(29:55):
my life.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
I felt that that was the moment I felt no, I'm really
a regional stylist, I'm aglobal stylist.
I fixed my name in the stylingfield completely.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
I felt that I exactly changed everything I wrote in
it.
Stylist of the.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Ferris parade.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Yes, I felt that it's a turning point.
It is yes.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Then all of a sudden, the Vodafone commercial
happened.
The ad that had Sharihan andthat was also.
I told you before we recordedthat for me the ad was great.
Of course Sharihan is iconic.
The outfits, the looks wereamazing.
So that wasarihan is iconic,the outfits, the looks were
amazing.
So this was something I workedon in the same year.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
I was in something like this for me.
I mean, I was so proud and Ican't believe in myself.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
And, of course, it was a dream.
Yes, it was a dream.
Really, for me, this was, itwas incredible.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
It was an experience you wouldn't get tired of.
I want to ask you something.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
What's the hardest thing about being a stylist?
Speaker 2 (31:00):
What's the hardest thing you find in your job?
The hardest thing in my job, ifyou make me a film the idea
that you'll be thinking aboutthe details of every character
and imagine what they feel inthe scenes, what they'll do, the
scenes, how they will dress andimplement all of this.
Right, he runs in the streets.
(31:20):
He doesn't end up in the malls.
Details are amazing.
In the drama, in the movies,the details, everything will be
done in a way, when you watch it, you will believe me Right.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
And then you're one of the stylists who wants to do
everything on your own or, forexample, you have assistants.
I know that there are a millionthousand details, as you said,
so do you want to be involved ineverything?
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Involved in everything and I have a big team
of people Very close, but Ihave to be.
I mean we help each other Right, but I have to.
I mean we help each other Right, but I have to.
I see everything and knoweverything.
The, the, the.
The red carpet looks and thethings that are glamour look,
and I mean that I, someone,becomes glam.
I don't have In it AlmostSomeone who helps me, okay, no
(32:09):
team or anything.
I do all these things.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
The look itself Okay, okay, perfect.
I was giving advice to men andhow to stay in their way, and I
heard that your husband likedthe advice.
That, of course.
(32:40):
But I want to ask you somethingI feel that all people want to
know Do you believe in somethingcalled balance?
I mean, you're a mother, you'rea wife, you're a stylist.
Is there something calledbalance in your life, or do you
always focus on it?
Do you focus on this moment andthat's it?
Your wife, your stylist isthere anything in your life
called balance, or is it alwayshis thing?
Do you focus on this moment andthat's?
Speaker 2 (32:56):
it look.
I do believe in balance in lifeeven though every week I get a
doubt and that's normal becauselife is fast and three kids and
work is not a week, it's a week.
And that's why I have a doubtevery week when I work, yes, and
(33:19):
then I don't know and I sit athome.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
And what makes you continue, what makes you feel
that you can do it, that you cando both, that you can see that
you can do this a little bit.
I can do the work a little bit.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
I can take care of the family a little bit.
I can take care of the house alittle bit.
Exactly that I can organize mythoughts and organize my time.
It will happen and I ask forhelp from anyone.
As for the, advice that I wassaying I came back from the
house.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
I found Buzi.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
He said I'm sitting on the couch, I mean in security
, why?
And I found you sitting insomething and my friends were
telling me, Madam, let her calmdown a little.
And inside my friends, theystarted to send me.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
Do you want any good?
Yes, you didn't say anythingwrong.
You basically said that the manshould take his role too.
He should help, because I feelthat in this era, if we work and
you don't help, the situationwon't go well.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Yes, and the idea is that you agree with the partner
one by one, because neither ofus knows how it goes, nor does
he know, by the way, the firsttime we were both children.
Yes, right, Okay so she willsay no, we are both our children
and we will start agreeing witheach other and talking by time.
Yes, that's right In your life,for example, that you will be a
(34:41):
working mom.
I mean, did you ever think thatyou will be?
Speaker 1 (34:53):
A stay-at-home housewife or something like that
.
This is not my personality atall.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Look, this is not my personality at all.
Okay, because I love work and Iwork since I was young, right,
but also I also had, I mean, Iwas afraid that I wouldn't be
able to have a family Because Ireally wanted to have kids and
get married and I was afraidthat work would steal me, right?
And that happens and I wasafraid that no one would agree
(35:18):
with my work conditions.
It happens too right.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Yes, because your work conditions.
I did a lot of interviews withactors, stylists, makeup artists
.
9 to 5 promises unpredictablethings, Maybe in the weekend
it's not there.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Suddenly, Maybe on a party, I do something like that,
but you're very passionate.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
It shows that you, from the light that is, can't be
not doing what you love, right.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
I also felt that I swear Sometimes I work hard and
I feel I can go, I leave workand do early retirement.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
And sit Very early.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
And sit and go to the club in the morning and drink
something with people Shopping,and then between work, work and
work there's a gap.
I get very bored and I startwhat's this Exactly?
And then Exactly.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
I feel like I think it's this.
I want to ask you somethingRight now.
You work with a lot of brands,the In the world Of the biggest
brands, I mean we can sayEveryone.
What is the process when you goto a brand, do you always?
Do you always, make asuggestion?
For example, let's say You'redressing, let's say Yusra or
(36:41):
Nelly Kareem, for example, doyou make a suggestion To work
with the brand or according to.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
I look at them according to my work and
sometimes I leave them Tosuggest me what collection they
will give me and sometimes if Ifind it Far from what was in my
mind, I start telling them.
I can tell you the things Ilike and see if it's available
or not.
And I become very careful thatwhen I come To wear celebrity
(37:14):
from them that I wear it right,correct, not the idea that I
wear the dress or the set, andthat's it no the rest of the
look must be right, Matching thehair Differently, very, very To
show you the outfit and thelook.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
That's true.
I feel like people Forget thatin the castitis You're involved
in everything the hair, themakeup, the shoes.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
The clutch, everything.
So I have to wear the wholelook to be right.
So the big brand Will be happy.
So you'll like it to work withme again.
This brand and I didn't misstheir collection when I wore it.
Speaker 1 (37:58):

Mine is fully, fully ductedBeautiful, by the way, gorgeous,
seriously insane.
Thank you, incredible, I love.
Speaker 2 (39:10):

Speaker 1 (39:11):
They play a huge role In the look.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Fiya symbols I like it, fiya symbols and protections
and things like that, butaccessories Accessories play a
huge role in the look.
I mean, I wear black pants anda plain pullover, but you
accessorize.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
I accessorize the look, so that's your main thing.
You love accessorizing.
Would you say you're simple.
I don't think so.
I'm not simple.
Oh, I'm happy to tell yourfriends.
I like confidence.
I'm not simple, it's fair.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
You won't feel like I'm busy, but when you focus,
it's not simple.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Do you understand what I mean?
Speaker 2 (39:47):
You'll find it's not the over that we're talking
about, but it's not simple.
Saad, tell your friends to comedown with me.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that I love that.
Speaker 1 (39:59):
I love that, I love that, I love that, I love that,
I love that, I love that, I lovethat, I love that, I love that,
I love that, I love.
Actually, in the fashionindustry in Masoleil, the
fashion design district, it wasincredible and there were
amazing panels.
There was a lot of selectionfrom the designers in the Al'A'a
.
Can you tell me more about thesubject?
(40:19):
I mean, you were the chair ofit, you curated the whole
subject.
Yes, did you feel that it had agreat impact?
Speaker 2 (40:26):
For me this is my baby fashion design district of
Cairo Design Week, لأن من أيامما كان قبل ما يبقى اسمه Cairo
Design Week.
صح بزبط, فهيشان بهدي لما كلمنيأول مرة هو العام الكل ده الweek
(40:47):
كله.
فقعد يشرح لي, وأنا مش فاهمة ففيالميتنج, نزلت قبله مش فاهمة ب.
So he explained to me and Ididn't understand.
So in the meeting I went downto him.
I didn't understand what he wassaying.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
But because of that idea it's crazy.
At first you will do a takeoverIn Heliopolis and in the
mountain, and at first it wasEgyptian designers.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
But after that, the year that passed Before that,
it's everything in the worldtogether.
So for me, the challenge was tobring Big names, like Arab
designers and internationalbrands and designers, with
Egyptian designers and upcomingdesigners In one place and it's
(41:30):
a show off and it's not a bazaar.
You go and know that there's abrand, or if you already know
that it's a well-known brand,but you see the concept as if
you're in a museum, exactly anexhibition.
You have to walk, you have tolook up and down On everything
(41:51):
the display of the productAround it and, since we're
Egyptians, you're very happy,proud that all these things are
included, like Egyptian brandsand these very big names.
Speaker 1 (42:09):
So you're very proud.
And this is my baby.
I'm telling you that they'reand this year was the biggest
year and it was in the Al'A'aand it was the takeover of most
of the new clothes in the Al'A'aand it was dangerous.
I loved your look the black,black on black and black shirts.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Thank you that that was a great light.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
It was great yes, it was.
Speaker 2 (42:29):
I was like what are we going to wear in the Fashion
Design District?
Let's think about it.
It was great, thank, you.
Yes, I'm very excited aboutthis, about everything that
happens, and I'm very happy whenwe find out that the most
crowded places are the fashion.
Speaker 1 (42:48):
The fashion design district.
Speaker 2 (42:49):
The whole week.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
And I'm not surprised by the way people really,
really want to know more, wantto discover local designers,
regional, to see who's in who's.
So this is something I mean, ofcourse.
Okay, I want to ask yousomething from the end of my
questions.
Honestly, at the moment, you'vedone a lot in your career as a
stylist.
Honestly, as a stylist,honestly, you're huge right now.
(43:11):
You've dressed everyone, workedwith all the brands, but I find
that recently, in the last year, I feel that, without a doubt,
you've become sort of aninfluencer, you yourself as well
.
People follow you for yourlooks, your style, your thinking
.
Is this something that happenedon purpose or did it happen
throughout your career?
Speaker 2 (43:30):
No, this is throughout my career and my life
happened throughout my career,life and days, and social media
and advice, yes, but I don'tknow how to.
I'm following a lot ofinfluencers for fashion, but I
don't know how to do the same asthem.
I wake up and imagine what I'mwearing today, every day, every
(43:53):
day, I'll tell you something.
I sweat a lot of myself Wearingwhat today.
Every day, I tell you something.
I wear a lot, but I don't takepictures.
I don't know how to do that,but I can do it in my job For
other people, or, if I'm in acertain event, someone did
something for me.
I'll put it down.
I don't know how to do that.
I feel like it's not my job,but I can be In another way, the
(44:20):
influence that I make In adifferent way.
Speaker 1 (44:23):
And I feel like Usually your story and you're a
mom and a mother and a stylistand other things People feel
that they are very inspired byyou.
So I think, naturally andyou're a mom and mom and stylist
and other things people feelthey're very inspired by you.
So I think, naturally thishappened.
I suddenly thought they'refollowing you for you and for
the advice.
And the last thing I'll ask youis that there are a lot of
(44:47):
stylists that have come out inthe past years and generally Gen
Z, I think, is one of thedreams of their lives and
they're a stylist who really,really wants a job.
Is there any advice you cangive to young stylists who are
trying to build a portfolio, acareer and a name.
Speaker 2 (45:06):
Look whether it's a young stylist or whether it's
not just Gen Z.
Not Gen Z, but generally.
Generally, because there arepeople who meet her or take her,
for example they come to aworkshop or something they want.
Okay, anyway, the world hasbecome very easy in the idea
that we change the career and donew things and that we reach a
(45:26):
certain point.
True, very true.
That I reach a certain pointthat will help me or go and make
me a True, very true, true.
Yes, okay, see the goal, goafter it, do anything that can
(45:50):
happen.
It will happen.
Speaker 1 (46:06):
It will come to you.
Don't feel depressed.
Speaker 2 (46:08):
If you sent someone a DM, that's true, but I'm
responding.
But I'm responding and theoccasion won't be useful.
No, it's true, and I'm alwayssorry.
Speaker 1 (46:19):
No, it's true, of course, the persistence, but as
a character, what charactertrait that you feel should be in
a stylist?
Should a stylist be or shouldhe be?
Speaker 2 (46:31):
First of all, I stylists have to be or stay.
The first thing Is to be.
I'm not here To be theattention.
For me, this is a veryimportant thing Because these
times I see it, I'm in the placeWith the celebrities Going To a
movie To dress them Insomething, in a red carpet, in
(46:53):
in a program, whatever.
I don't get the attention andI'm not the star.
They're the stars and becauseof them I work, even If I see
that I'm a star In my job.
Okay, I'm a star in my job, butthey're the stars.
Speaker 1 (47:11):
I don't have time.
Speaker 2 (47:12):
Because some people make the same mistake.
The ego issue, which is, by theway, right that I'm, no, let me
be a star.
They're Attention is not mine,it's theirs.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
It's really good advice, by the way.
I think that really becauseeveryone wants to be an
influencer, everyone wants to befamous, everyone on social
media feels that I am the star.
I am the thing.
Speaker 2 (47:38):
It's hard.
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (47:40):
It's hard.
Speaker 2 (47:40):
I mean bravo that you're a star in your job.
Right, but not according to youand me.
But feel it inside, keep itinside, yeah.
Speaker 1 (47:48):
I love that.
I love that.
Okay, I want to know what noone knows about you.
You've never written about iton social media as a character,
trait or habit or something inyour personality, unless no one
knows about you?
Speaker 2 (48:02):
Okay, okay, I don't know.
No one knows about me except myfriends and family.
I love food a lot, really.
Yes, very, very, very, very,very Okay, yes.
And then I want to tell youthat I love eating a lot.
It seems to me that I'm not aperson who eats a lot.
(48:23):
No, I love eating and notnormal eating.
It seems to me that I eat sushiand that's it.
Speaker 1 (48:29):
I love it too.
No, it seems to you that youeat sushi.
Matcha skimmed milk.
That's it.
Speaker 2 (48:58):
I love kawara and sushi.
Speaker 1 (48:59):
Matcha.
The fat is made with butter.
Our food, the Egyptian food,yes, yes, yes, it's obvious.
Believe me, I love the.
I love the.
Maya loves stuffed food and shelooks like a supermodel.
Tell me what's going on here.
Speaker 2 (49:12):
I don't understand.
I'm currently the anger thatcame to me that I don't eat.
I eat soft food and other types, but generally you like food,
but generally before the pastmonth.
Speaker 1 (49:27):
I mean, if you want to go to sushi or to a place.
Speaker 2 (49:32):
The prince, the prince, I love you.
It's dangerous.
The prince, the prince ofcourse the prince.
Speaker 1 (49:36):
I mean the prince of the Caliph.
I love you, Maya, You're sobeautiful.
Okay, I'm going to ask you aquestion from we're Not Really
Strangers a game.
I love this game.
Okay, the question I'm going toask you is that usually, when
there's an event or any work orsomething, do you come early?
Speaker 2 (49:57):
or late, I never come early.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
I didn't think of that.
That's an Egyptian response.
I never come early.
Speaker 2 (50:08):
Even the 20 minutes that you're late today, you try
to come early.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
But you were on time, but I'm a little late.
They're a quarter to a third ofan hour.
They're those.
So there's no early but notlate.
Speaker 2 (50:25):
You weren't late 10 minutes, 15 minutes, but if I
come early, it won't be easy,it's hard.
Speaker 1 (50:33):
I want to come early.
All this and you want me tocome early, why?
No, no, it's not our fate.
By the way, there's no one inEgypt.
I feel like we feel that if Icame early, that's what's
important.
Look, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (50:46):
I always have a nice dream, okay, and I want to go to
the mosque, and I want to goearly, but, and I'm right, yes,

ideal, an event or somethinglike that.

I'm a third of an hour away and they'll call me
there.
Perfect, okay, my security.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Action.
Okay, okay.
I'm now sitting with May Galel,the stylist the most incredible
stylist in Egypt, in my opinion.
Thank you.
We've been wanting to do thisfor 3 years, because May is not
just an empty word.
May, you're really busy and Ireally think that you're one of
(01:40):
the most women I see as mentorsin the industry.
You work really hard and itshows your career is insane.
So we're going to go into allthe details, but thank you, nick
, for being with me today.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Finally, Thank you for your patience.
I always told you I was afraidyou'd hate me, but the first
time I knew about you I was veryclear that I wouldn't do this
or that, but it was worth it.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
We did it.
It's time.
As I told you, I believe intiming and I feel that it's time
for the right time.
Obviously, the first question Iwant to ask you I ask all my
colleagues who is Galil today?
If you had to describe yourself, if you had to tell me who are
you today, in this currentmoment In time, what would you
(02:32):
say?
I would say I am with my parentsand the stylist, both, always,
always, I mean Both of two, amother of two.
(03:07):
When I first met you, I feltthat you were one of the most
easy people to talk to.
You know yourself, you're veryprofessional, but when I
discovered you're a mother, thatwas a shock for me.
Another story I felt thatyou're so glam and I always see
you in these events when we'revery, very dressed up.
Do you feel like you have adouble life or a life with two
(03:32):
sides?
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Yes, yes, yes, this is official, this is for sure.
Double life is a reality, asthey say.
Yes, yes, because we met at afashion show, right, fashion
show.
And we always meet at events.
We wear a lot of clothes yes,and we do what we can't do.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Glam, everything Makeup, hair Makeup yes.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Heels, everything, yes, and that's it.
On the other hand, the oppositeI always walk in a hoodie,
jeans, leggings, sneakers, and Iwalk.
I always walk in a hoodie,jeans, leggings, sneakers, and I
don't even wear extensions.
I don't do anything.
I go with my kids to a place orsomething.
(04:14):
But I will tell you something Iusually like to be at the end of
the day and wear.
And do.
I like that?
Yes, I mean, this is somethingin me that I like to dress and
act like I'm a woman.
I like that, yes, I like to dosomething, and when I don't feel
like I'm doing something or I'minterested, I don't feel happy
(04:35):
or confident.
That's part of the things thatmake me, I see, a nice day, a
nice place.
You know, this is a therapy nowit's a kind of I didn't know.
Yes, to dress nicely, to beinterested, the colors you'll
wear, these are many things thathave become very important In
(04:58):
personality, in self-knowledge,in your personality, amad, in my
personality for all peopleInteresting.

I want you to explain to mewhat is the morning routine To
cut the skin Of my galal whenyou wake up?

of blessed oil.

I have a way, the lucky I,she's normal, normal, okay,
that's great.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Now I want to ask you something.
We talked briefly.
Before we started.
You had a year, which was 2021,approximately this year.
There were a lot of things thathappened in Maya Galal's career
Generally, before we get intothe Pharaohs Parade and all the
things that happened this year,I want to know you and you young
(11:45):
people, let's go back.
Before we get into thePharaoh's Parade and all the
things that happened this year,I want to know you and you are
young, let's go back.
Did you always like to wear?
Did you always like fashion?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Or did this sort of happen when you grew up a little
?
No, I mean, I see that I wasborn with a needle in my hand,
like Cinderella.
With a needle in my hand, likeCinderella, I'm serious, because
I never realized that until Igrew up.
And I have girls and kids.
So when you say you don't knowwhat the buttons are, you're
(12:16):
wrong.
So for her, what does it mean?
What does it mean?
So I've been sewing since I was8 years old.
The idea of the things we hearis serious.
The idea that I have Barbies andrings.
I take them and start.
I take any shirt from my momand I cut the shape of the dress
(12:38):
.
And I start sewing it by hand.
I was making a top for myself,a simple top.
I thought it was a halter neckand I made it myself.
I made a top for myself.
The top is simple.
It's a halter neck.
I cut it With a needle and athread.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
So you're really born like this.
You have love and honor.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
I love art when.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
I was still.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
I used to peel an orange.
I'll eat it.
You peel the orange and thepeel is like slices.
I start with the slices with aknife, I make a shape star, I
make a heart.
Sometimes I make a play With at-shirt and pants and we put
them on top of each other.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
So everything you're doing is creative.
Yes, I love it.
I feel like you're one of thosepeople.
When you meet someone, you feellike You're passionately,
you're dressed in a way thatmakes you happy and you feel
like you carry it well andyou're dressed in a way that
makes you feel If I want thistoo, definitely.
But I want to ask you somethingwhen was the moment that you
(13:43):
felt or knew about our jobcalled stylist?
Because I think that this issuein the region, for example, is
known more than the past yearsfrom a stylist like you Proved
that this job or this job can bevery, very successful.
So when did you know aboutsomething called styling?
Speaker 2 (14:03):
So when did you know about styling?
Look, I'm lucky that Mona Zaki,she's my cousin and she's my
sister.
We've been living together inthe same building all our lives,
yes, and she's an actress sinceshe was little.
So since I was little, I usedto watch, right, or with my aunt
and mom, we used to go to thetheater and film.
So I used to watch, yes, andthere wasn't anything stylist.
(14:26):
There was an idea of a costumedesigner For movies, for the
films that are needed, for thefilms that are needed, like
Nahed Nasra, the film theImmigrant, the Fate, films that
are needed For someone to be adesigner.
But normal films are made by adecor artist who is responsible
for the clothes and stuff, right, so when a movie starts, you
(14:48):
start buying a lot of clothes Toshow the decorator If there's a
costume or something.
So I was watching this and itwas amazing.
It was really nice and I wantedto enter In beautiful rooms
Because there's drawing andstuff.
And then I didn't enter Inbeautiful rooms.
I didn't pass the drawing exam.
I'm a senior and I draw well,but it happens, it happens.
(15:10):
So I entered at that time inEnglish literature but I said no
, I will also work the job thatI love From here.
One by one, the idea of thestylist began to be there.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
When.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I, for I finish school, I go to university.
There used to be a stylist.
I used to see that Mona went toa movie and there is a stylist
and Mona sees the clothes andthe stylist Watches the clothes
at home and cleans.
Speaker 1 (15:36):
And there is something that created this job
and became something that Ireally needed.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
I started working in university.
I started working with NahidNasrallah.
I worked with her as anassistant On the professional
level, not just watching at home.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
We do it.
What was the first film orfirst Work you felt in styling
that you felt would be yourcareer?
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Look, the first film I made made me a criminal.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
It was made by Ghada Adel and Ahmed, helmy and Abdul
Ghafoor and Edward.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
I was very happy when I made it.
It was directed by Amr Arafaand Amr was standing next to me
and I didn't know anything.
He was Mohamed Amin, a decorartist, and he was, I mean, for
him.
It could have been A mess and amess, but I swear I was with
him Before the half-life.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
So you were holding the film from the beginning to
the end and styling it.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
And when I first started I was very afraid that
would be working in the middleand I would only work with Mona.
And what would I do?
I wouldn't work with Mona sothat people wouldn't say that
I'm coming with a bag Right.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
And that's a normal feeling, I mean generally.
But I feel that you I mean overthe years and my life, I mean,
I've been working for 20 years.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
I didn't work with Mona except two movies.
Right, in the 20 years, I'venever worked with Mona except
for two movies.
True, in the 20 years I'veworked with many other people,
with Amir Carrara, with AhmedHelmi.
I don't want to get into that.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
You've worked with everyone.
Let's be real You've workedwith everyone, not just, of
course, mona Zaki.
We love her.
We got the icon.
Speaker 2 (17:23):
She's my idol, I love her.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Her style is amazing.
Everything, everything.
But you worked on a very longlist.
You guys Okay Yusra AnghemMonazaki, amina Khalil Nally,
kareem Amir Karara, ahmed Helmi,ismin Sabri, many, many, many
more.
I mean, I feel like there's noone.
Honestly, my galil didn't style, but I want to know you're a
(17:45):
celebrity, you have yourpersonality, your style, your
style.
How do you prepare to work withall the different personalities
?
Do you have any process?
Do you have a specific way?
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Look, with time, when I learned the know-how Of our
work, yes, look your way withCelebrities is very important,
like talent yes, the sameimportance, because if your way
Is not flexible, you willconvince them with clothes
(18:21):
Exactly.
If you talk to one of yourfriends and she wants to tell
her that this top is not nice,she probably won't believe you
and if she likes it, it will beperfect and that this bag is
better than this.
You know what I mean, or you'regoing to convince them with a
look?
Speaker 1 (18:33):
It's very difficult because this dress is very
intimate, something that isclose to my eyes, one of the
most important things I feel.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
Yes, so it vision is very important.
Sometimes you can be sotalented Like a stylist, but you
don't have the way to convincethem.
Yes, convince them.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
This is the most, most thing I hear and the
hardest thing, by the way, isher personality, definitely.
And what else?
For example, a film or a look?
Actually, you did it.
You felt your audience, it wasblown away.
You felt it was something smalland it went viral.
Really, what is this question?
The question is More thananything, for example.
(19:26):
These are two things, becauseyou did a lot of things.
Okay, tell me.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Okay, I'll tell you.
Because there are a lot ofthings I'm thinking about.
For example, now I'll tell yousomething.
Everything depends on the time,okay, because there are things.
There are things that are outthese two days, or fashion.
So there are things that arevery popular these days, so
they're happy and they like it.
If the role space as movies Isuseful to make this or make the
(19:53):
fashion.
So you always look at it andyou think to yourself why not be
like her or like him?
But I don't know, tell me.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Think a little.
Maya Nelly Karim.
Recently you styled her forsomething.
It was incredible.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Red carpets, red carpets, these are different
from movies.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Red carpets, look, I feel that this is more time.
You can go Really glam.
Yes, you can go crazy, right ornot?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Look glam, but not crazy.
I will tell you this crazy, youcan go crazy for the photo
shoots.
Okay, but the red carpet.
No, the red carpet.
People came out on the redcarpet In a nice way, and
they're Nelly Karim, for real,amina Khalil, for real.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
Not a character.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
And people want to watch them and they look nice
the people you love.
So you want to make them lookas nice as possible.
Star, really, exactly, ifthey're stars, you want to make
them look as nice as possibleand as much as people like them,
because if people don't likethem, there will be a lot of
criticism, a lot, because ifpeople don't like it, there will
(21:04):
be a lot of criticism, a lot.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
Some people cried a lot.
We can talk about this topic.
Actually, this is really hard,but okay, give me a couple of
red carpet looks, for example, alot of love.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
Look, the love for this year was the gown.
It was expensive, yes, it was,thank God.
I can't say I did a good job.
I was telling you my turn.
The feedback was always used tobe that there are bad things.
Or I like it, but most peopledon't agree with it and you
don't like them.
And Facebook groups.
(21:37):
And girls and sometimes ithurts a lot, but thank God they
were saying that I liked all thethings, so I was very happy.
I felt it went really well.
I felt it went very well andsuccess, so I was very happy.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
How do you read all these criticisms?
Do you read the difficultcomments or do you make them a
blog?
I mean, yeah, especially if youwear Mona.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Sometimes people say it's the best time to wear it
when you wear it with you, andwe know that you do.
The comments are amazing.
In the same group, you findthat she has to change the style
(22:36):
, not because she entered it andI didn't see it Say it and
that's it Exactly.
I can tell you something.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
The most thing I felt on social media.
I don't have eyes.
Tell me what you want Exactly.
I don't have to, by the way.
I can tell you something.
The most thing I feel In socialmedia Is that Negative comments
Depending on the platform.
For example, tiktok has a lotmore negativity Than other
platforms.
Instagram is normal, facebookIs also fine, but depending on
the platform, people are morenegative or the audience is
positive.
But I feel In fashion it's morecritical.
But according to the platform,people will be negative more or
(23:05):
the audience positive.
But I feel that in fashion it'smore critical than anything
else.
They take the outfit andseparate it.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Even if it has a nice part, I don't know.
But I'm just saying within theprocess, when I choose a design
or something with a celebritydesigner, for example I don't
know what color it is I tellthem no, no, no, he'll put the
signature or the signature orthe letter of the person you
already know.
Yes, I really start thinkingabout where the way will come
(23:34):
from, so that you avoid it?
Speaker 1 (23:37):
No, but I'll tell you something.
I really feel that the more youbecome resilient, the more you
feel that you won't hear thisand continue.
That's what makes you reachthings, incredible things that
we can't imagine, like, forexample, the Pharaoh's parade.
Let's talk about the Pharaoh'sparade.
I think this was one of themost iconic moments in the
(24:01):
history of fashion, media andadvertising in Egypt from the
last 3-4 years, which is I wantyou to tell me.
How did this happen?
Who told you when?
How did you know you would bethe stylist for the parade?
Speaker 2 (24:15):
The Ferris parade is a turning point in my life,
Khaled Azam.
I always thank him for givingme this opportunity to be
present and be with him, becausehe already had his own.
And then he said I want to bewith us.
It's a very, very big project.
(24:37):
I'll bring someone else to be astylist.
And he said May Galil, and wedidn't know each other, we're
not friends, hi.
Just more than that.
And then we started workingtogether and he's not just my
best friend right now, he's mybrother.
(24:58):
So, we became very close friendsand it was for me.
I didn't realize the extent ofwhat we're doing, but I know
that it's a big thing and weknow that the whole world will
be watching and we know that atthis time in the meetings they
(25:19):
were explaining to us what willhappen, and so on, until we
started the provost.
So in the provost, wow, withthe numbers, With the sizes, you
know you work in something.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
And you worked and work in a company that you've
worked in for months.
I don't notice the scale.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
I know you have a lot of work and everything and I
hope you pass it, but I don'trealize it.
Until the day of the show, Iwas in one place and Khaled was
in another, and the rest of theteam was in other places,
(25:57):
because we were in Egypt.
The event was happening InEgypt, yes and live.
When it was over, I started toopen.
We finished.
I started to open the phone andbefore that I was crying To
Khaled on the phone.
Before that we weren't, becausethere was.
(26:18):
You were afraid of what.
There was something, one of thepeople who will be, who are the
big numbers who are walking inthe parade itself.
He was wearing a sneaker and Idon't know what.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
And he took something from the things like that and
he and a pair of jeans.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
The picture was taken in a very different way.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
He wasn't wearing any clothes, he was wearing jeans.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
He was still in the rehearsal.
The boy was probably walking.
He just put something on hisshirt.
The rest of his clothes werenormal.
What a story.
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,
okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,
okay, okay Okay.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay Okay.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
Okay, for 9 months I'm not doing anything else in
my life Other than that.
And there are people, theimaginary, the people who will
open the door of the museum, thedancers, the pyramids Of Khof
and Khafra, the pyramids of Giza, the pyramids of Saqqara, the
(27:30):
temples in Luxor, the operasingers, exactly.
There are, of course, othercelebrities in the talks and
things.
What are they going to wear?
What are we going to do?
Of course they want Egyptiandesigners.
They want Arab designers aswell.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
And you were one of the people who were pushing for
this.
There must be Egyptiandesigners.
There must be Arab designers.
Yes, me and Khaled you andKhaled, yes of course, but you
were here the day before andwhen the parade ended, when it
ended, you opened the phone.
I opened the phone.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
You found the whole world.
I opened the phone.
I opened Facebook first.
Okay, facebook, sometimes thereare things More than Instagram.
You see the book, more Facebook.
(28:26):
A picture of her was in a groupof Angie Aboud and they wrote
how she was chic and beautiful.
So I started scrolling.
I found pictures from theparade and people were talking
(28:47):
amazing things.
So I took a break.
I was at the Museum in the cityof Hadarat.
I found DMC.
They do interviews.
They do interviews with Iman AlHosari.
I started talking to my sister,father and husband.
They started saying that we areso proud and everyone was happy
(29:09):
.
I know they always say Nicethings, but I told them People
say I like it, it's nice.
I told Khaled you heardsomething, khaled.
You heard.
Everything is good.
We did a great job, khaled.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yes, Not only did you do A great job, I think it was.
Egypt watched the parade.
The whole world Watched theparade.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Things that was.
I think I really really, reallyraised my head in the parade.
In a weird way, it was aturning point in my career, in
(29:55):
my life.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
I felt that that was the moment I felt no, I'm really
a regional stylist, I'm aglobal stylist.
I fixed my name in the stylingfield completely.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
I felt that I exactly changed everything I wrote in
it.
Stylist of the.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Ferris parade.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Yes, I felt that it's a turning point.
It is yes.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
Then all of a sudden, the Vodafone commercial
happened.
The ad that had Sharihan andthat was also.
I told you before we recordedthat for me the ad was great.
Of course Sharihan is iconic.
The outfits, the looks wereamazing.
So that wasarihan is iconic,the outfits, the looks were
amazing.
So this was something I workedon in the same year.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
I was in something like this for me.
I mean, I was so proud and Ican't believe in myself.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
And, of course, it was a dream.
Yes, it was a dream.
Really, for me, this was, itwas incredible.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
It was an experience you wouldn't get tired of.
I want to ask you something.
Speaker 1 (30:53):
What's the hardest thing about being a stylist?
Speaker 2 (31:00):
What's the hardest thing you find in your job?
The hardest thing in my job, ifyou make me a film the idea
that you'll be thinking aboutthe details of every character
and imagine what they feel inthe scenes, what they'll do, the
scenes, how they will dress andimplement all of this.
Right, he runs in the streets.
(31:20):
He doesn't end up in the malls.
Details are amazing.
In the drama, in the movies,the details, everything will be
done in a way, when you watch it, you will believe me Right.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
And then you're one of the stylists who wants to do
everything on your own or, forexample, you have assistants.
I know that there are a millionthousand details, as you said,
so do you want to be involved ineverything?
Speaker 2 (31:45):
Involved in everything and I have a big team
of people Very close, but Ihave to be.
I mean we help each other Right, but I have to.
I mean we help each other Right, but I have to.
I see everything and knoweverything.
The, the, the.
The red carpet looks and thethings that are glamour look,
and I mean that I, someone,becomes glam.
I don't have In it AlmostSomeone who helps me, okay, no
(32:09):
team or anything.
I do all these things.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
The look itself Okay, okay, perfect.
I was giving advice to men andhow to stay in their way, and I
heard that your husband likedthe advice.
That, of course.
(32:40):
But I want to ask you somethingI feel that all people want to
know Do you believe in somethingcalled balance?
I mean, you're a mother, you'rea wife, you're a stylist.
Is there something calledbalance in your life, or do you
always focus on it?
Do you focus on this moment andthat's it?
Your wife, your stylist isthere anything in your life
called balance, or is it alwayshis thing?
Do you focus on this moment andthat's?
Speaker 2 (32:56):
it look.
I do believe in balance in lifeeven though every week I get a
doubt and that's normal becauselife is fast and three kids and
work is not a week, it's a week.
And that's why I have a doubtevery week when I work, yes, and
(33:19):
then I don't know and I sit athome.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
And what makes you continue, what makes you feel
that you can do it, that you cando both, that you can see that
you can do this a little bit.
I can do the work a little bit.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
I can take care of the family a little bit.
I can take care of the house alittle bit.
Exactly that I can organize mythoughts and organize my time.
It will happen and I ask forhelp from anyone.
As for the, advice that I wassaying I came back from the
house.
Speaker 1 (33:44):
I found Buzi.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
He said I'm sitting on the couch, I mean in security
, why?
And I found you sitting insomething and my friends were
telling me, Madam, let her calmdown a little.
And inside my friends, theystarted to send me.
Speaker 1 (33:59):
Do you want any good?
Yes, you didn't say anythingwrong.
You basically said that the manshould take his role too.
He should help, because I feelthat in this era, if we work and
you don't help, the situationwon't go well.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Yes, and the idea is that you agree with the partner
one by one, because neither ofus knows how it goes, nor does
he know, by the way, the firsttime we were both children.
Yes, right, Okay so she willsay no, we are both our children
and we will start agreeing witheach other and talking by time.
Yes, that's right In your life,for example, that you will be a
(34:41):
working mom.
I mean, did you ever think thatyou will be?
Speaker 1 (34:53):
A stay-at-home housewife or something like that
.
This is not my personality atall.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Look, this is not my personality at all.
Okay, because I love work and Iwork since I was young, right,
but also I also had, I mean, Iwas afraid that I wouldn't be
able to have a family Because Ireally wanted to have kids and
get married and I was afraidthat work would steal me, right?
And that happens and I wasafraid that no one would agree
(35:18):
with my work conditions.
It happens too right.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Yes, because your work conditions.
I did a lot of interviews withactors, stylists, makeup artists
.
9 to 5 promises unpredictablethings, Maybe in the weekend
it's not there.
Speaker 2 (35:37):
Suddenly, Maybe on a party, I do something like that,
but you're very passionate.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
It shows that you, from the light that is, can't be
not doing what you love, right.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
I also felt that I swear Sometimes I work hard and
I feel I can go, I leave workand do early retirement.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
And sit Very early.
Speaker 2 (36:05):
And sit and go to the club in the morning and drink
something with people Shopping,and then between work, work and
work there's a gap.
I get very bored and I startwhat's this Exactly?
And then Exactly.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
I feel like I think it's this.
I want to ask you somethingRight now.
You work with a lot of brands,the In the world Of the biggest
brands, I mean we can sayEveryone.
What is the process when you goto a brand, do you always?
Do you always, make asuggestion?
For example, let's say You'redressing, let's say Yusra or
(36:41):
Nelly Kareem, for example, doyou make a suggestion To work
with the brand or according to.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
I look at them according to my work and
sometimes I leave them Tosuggest me what collection they
will give me and sometimes if Ifind it Far from what was in my
mind, I start telling them.
I can tell you the things Ilike and see if it's available
or not.
And I become very careful thatwhen I come To wear celebrity
(37:14):
from them that I wear it right,correct, not the idea that I
wear the dress or the set, andthat's it no the rest of the
look must be right, Matching thehair Differently, very, very To
show you the outfit and thelook.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
That's true.
I feel like people Forget thatin the castitis You're involved
in everything the hair, themakeup, the shoes.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
The clutch, everything.
So I have to wear the wholelook to be right.
So the big brand Will be happy.
So you'll like it to work withme again.
This brand and I didn't misstheir collection when I wore it.
Speaker 1 (37:58):
Right, right.
And what are the brands thatyou like to work with?
For example, do you like acouple that you really love
working with?

Egyptian designers.

givenchy, dior, burberry, fendi,prada.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
All of them Between Between.
Mine is fully, fully ductedBeautiful, by the way, gorgeous,
seriously insane.
Thank you, incredible, I love.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
Symbols, protections, accessories.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
They play a huge role In the look.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Fiya symbols I like it, fiya symbols and protections
and things like that, butaccessories Accessories play a
huge role in the look.
I mean, I wear black pants anda plain pullover, but you
accessorize.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
I accessorize the look, so that's your main thing.
You love accessorizing.
Would you say you're simple.
I don't think so.
I'm not simple.
Oh, I'm happy to tell yourfriends.
I like confidence.
I'm not simple, it's fair.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
You won't feel like I'm busy, but when you focus,
it's not simple.
Speaker 1 (39:45):
Do you understand what I mean?
Speaker 2 (39:47):
You'll find it's not the over that we're talking
about, but it's not simple.
Saad, tell your friends to comedown with me.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that.
I love that I love that.
Speaker 1 (39:59):
I love that, I love that, I love that, I love that,
I love that, I love that, I lovethat, I love that, I love that,
I love that, I love.
Actually, in the fashionindustry in Masoleil, the
fashion design district, it wasincredible and there were
amazing panels.
There was a lot of selectionfrom the designers in the Al'A'a
.
Can you tell me more about thesubject?
(40:19):
I mean, you were the chair ofit, you curated the whole
subject.
Yes, did you feel that it had agreat impact?
Speaker 2 (40:26):
For me this is my baby fashion design district of
Cairo Design Week, لأن من أيامما كان قبل ما يبقى اسمه Cairo
Design Week.
صح بزبط, فهيشان بهدي لما كلمنيأول مرة هو العام الكل ده الweek
(40:47):
كله.
فقعد يشرح لي, وأنا مش فاهمة ففيالميتنج, نزلت قبله مش فاهمة ب.
So he explained to me and Ididn't understand.
So in the meeting I went downto him.
I didn't understand what he wassaying.
Speaker 1 (40:56):
But because of that idea it's crazy.
At first you will do a takeoverIn Heliopolis and in the
mountain, and at first it wasEgyptian designers.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
But after that, the year that passed Before that,
it's everything in the worldtogether.
So for me, the challenge was tobring Big names, like Arab
designers and internationalbrands and designers, with
Egyptian designers and upcomingdesigners In one place and it's
(41:30):
a show off and it's not a bazaar.
You go and know that there's abrand, or if you already know
that it's a well-known brand,but you see the concept as if
you're in a museum, exactly anexhibition.
You have to walk, you have tolook up and down On everything
(41:51):
the display of the productAround it and, since we're
Egyptians, you're very happy,proud that all these things are
included, like Egyptian brandsand these very big names.
Speaker 1 (42:09):
So you're very proud.
And this is my baby.
I'm telling you that they'reand this year was the biggest
year and it was in the Al'A'aand it was the takeover of most
of the new clothes in the Al'A'aand it was dangerous.
I loved your look the black,black on black and black shirts.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
Thank you that that was a great light.
Speaker 1 (42:27):
It was great yes, it was.
Speaker 2 (42:29):
I was like what are we going to wear in the Fashion
Design District?
Let's think about it.
It was great, thank, you.
Yes, I'm very excited aboutthis, about everything that
happens, and I'm very happy whenwe find out that the most
crowded places are the fashion.
Speaker 1 (42:48):
The fashion design district.
Speaker 2 (42:49):
The whole week.
Speaker 1 (42:50):
And I'm not surprised by the way people really,
really want to know more, wantto discover local designers,
regional, to see who's in who's.
So this is something I mean, ofcourse.
Okay, I want to ask yousomething from the end of my
questions.
Honestly, at the moment, you'vedone a lot in your career as a
stylist.
Honestly, as a stylist,honestly, you're huge right now.
(43:11):
You've dressed everyone, workedwith all the brands, but I find
that recently, in the last year, I feel that, without a doubt,
you've become sort of aninfluencer, you yourself as well
.
People follow you for yourlooks, your style, your thinking
.
Is this something that happenedon purpose or did it happen
throughout your career?
Speaker 2 (43:30):
No, this is throughout my career and my life
happened throughout my career,life and days, and social media
and advice, yes, but I don'tknow how to.
I'm following a lot ofinfluencers for fashion, but I
don't know how to do the same asthem.
I wake up and imagine what I'mwearing today, every day, every
(43:53):
day, I'll tell you something.
I sweat a lot of myself Wearingwhat today.
Every day, I tell you something.
I wear a lot, but I don't takepictures.
I don't know how to do that,but I can do it in my job For
other people, or, if I'm in acertain event, someone did
something for me.
I'll put it down.
I don't know how to do that.
I feel like it's not my job,but I can be In another way, the
(44:20):
influence that I make In adifferent way.
Speaker 1 (44:23):
And I feel like Usually your story and you're a
mom and a mother and a stylistand other things People feel
that they are very inspired byyou.
So I think, naturally andyou're a mom and mom and stylist
and other things people feelthey're very inspired by you.
So I think, naturally thishappened.
I suddenly thought they'refollowing you for you and for
the advice.
And the last thing I'll ask youis that there are a lot of
(44:47):
stylists that have come out inthe past years and generally Gen
Z, I think, is one of thedreams of their lives and
they're a stylist who really,really wants a job.
Is there any advice you cangive to young stylists who are
trying to build a portfolio, acareer and a name.
Speaker 2 (45:06):
Look whether it's a young stylist or whether it's
not just Gen Z.
Not Gen Z, but generally.
Generally, because there arepeople who meet her or take her,
for example they come to aworkshop or something they want.
Okay, anyway, the world hasbecome very easy in the idea
that we change the career and donew things and that we reach a
(45:26):
certain point.
True, very true.
That I reach a certain pointthat will help me or go and make
me a True, very true, true.
Yes, okay, see the goal, goafter it, do anything that can
(45:50):
happen.
It will happen.
Speaker 1 (46:06):
It will come to you.
Don't feel depressed.
Speaker 2 (46:08):
If you sent someone a DM, that's true, but I'm
responding.
But I'm responding and theoccasion won't be useful.
No, it's true, and I'm alwayssorry.
Speaker 1 (46:19):
No, it's true, of course, the persistence, but as
a character, what charactertrait that you feel should be in
a stylist?
Should a stylist be or shouldhe be?
Speaker 2 (46:31):
First of all, I stylists have to be or stay.
The first thing Is to be.
I'm not here To be theattention.
For me, this is a veryimportant thing Because these
times I see it, I'm in the placeWith the celebrities Going To a
movie To dress them Insomething, in a red carpet, in
(46:53):
in a program, whatever.
I don't get the attention andI'm not the star.
They're the stars and becauseof them I work, even If I see
that I'm a star In my job.
Okay, I'm a star in my job, butthey're the stars.
Speaker 1 (47:11):
I don't have time.
Speaker 2 (47:12):
Because some people make the same mistake.
The ego issue, which is, by theway, right that I'm, no, let me
be a star.
They're Attention is not mine,it's theirs.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
It's really good advice, by the way.
I think that really becauseeveryone wants to be an
influencer, everyone wants to befamous, everyone on social
media feels that I am the star.
I am the thing.
Speaker 2 (47:38):
It's hard.
No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (47:40):
It's hard.
Speaker 2 (47:40):
I mean bravo that you're a star in your job.
Right, but not according to youand me.
But feel it inside, keep itinside, yeah.
Speaker 1 (47:48):
I love that.
I love that.
Okay, I want to know what noone knows about you.
You've never written about iton social media as a character,
trait or habit or something inyour personality, unless no one
knows about you?
Speaker 2 (48:02):
Okay, okay, I don't know.
No one knows about me except myfriends and family.

to come early.
Speaker 1 (50:14):

come early, it won't be easy,it's hard.
Speaker 1 (50:33):
I want to come early.
All this and you want me tocome early, why?

important.
