Egyptian Label Heiza Studios Creates Garments With Cerebral Layers
Egyptian Label Heiza Studios Creates Garments With Cerebral Layers What does it take for a garment to truly stand out? There is a fine balance between an item of clothing being so explicitly peculiar that it detracts conversations, and an item being plain, mass-produced, and not worth noting. In between the two, there are collections of garments that simply scaffold a conversation. They're there, but they don't need to be addressed. These are the type of garments that Egyptian brand Heiza Studios crafts. While you might not know it, there's a good chance you've seen Heiza worn - not only by fashionable friends, but also by Egyptian celebrities. I mean, Heiza even worked with Egypt's 'Number One'; they prepared Mohamed Ramadan's wardrobe for his Ramadan show 'Madfaa Ramadan'. They also custom made a wool silk half-zip sweater for Egyptian rap icon Wegz for a 2024 Liv Golf show in Riyadh. For both celebrities and regular customers, Heiza adopts a tailored approach to their collections. Each individual peace is made by the Heiza team of three tailors - and one wood artisan - either to a set size or for custom measurements, which you can simply specify when ordering from their website. The tailoring team brings the dreams of Ismail Heiza, the founder, creative director and designer of Heiza, to life. 'Heiza is all about transforming ideas into tangible expressions,' Ismail Heiza tells Scene Styled, 'It's more than just aesthetics; we believe our designs to be a powerful tool for communication, innovation and inspiration.' After graduating from University of the Arts in London, Heiza set out to create a creative studio where his heritage of craftsmanship can be honoured alongside modern design technologies. As a result, Heiza has a look that is both futuristic and grounded. 'We push the boundaries of what's possible while staying true to our roots.' Heiza's most prized collection is 'Cortex', which Heiza describes as 'an exploration of the human brain's evolution and its interconnectedness across civilisations and eras.' This collection is meant to jumpstart synapses and get ideas to flow, spanning clothing, jewellery, bags, furniture and even a set of original short films, all directed by the Heiza founder. Each piece in Cortex is crafted to portray how Heiza imagines iconic thinkers' brains to be. 'Each piece in the collection is crafted from materials that aren't usually combined, shaped with intricate artistry to inspire curiosity. It's a journey through layered design and cerebral storytelling.'

Gérard Depardieu Found Guilty of Sexual Assault in Court Ruling
SEENEWS French actor Gérard Depardieu, 76, has been found guilty of sexual assault against two women during the 2021 filming of Les Volets Verts in Paris. The court sentenced him to 18 months in prison with a suspended sentence, added him to France's national sex offender registry, and ordered him to pay compensation to the victims. The verdict, delivered by a Paris court, marks a turning point for France's film industry, and the broader MeToo movement in Europe. Depardieu, who was not present in court at the time of sentencing, was accused of groping two women on set, a set designer identified as Amélie, and an assistant director known by the pseudonym Sarah. The assaults reportedly took place in September 2021, during the production of a film centered on an aging actor. According to court testimony, Depardieu used sexually explicit language and touched the women inappropriately without consent. Amélie, now 54, spoke emotionally after the ruling, telling reporters she was "deeply moved" and that the outcome represented "a victory and a major step forward." Her account, the court found, was consistent and credible, unlike Depardieu's defense, which the judge noted had shifted over time. Depardieu's legal team, led by attorney Jérémie Assous, has announced plans to appeal the decision. The actor, who has denied all allegations, remained in the Azores working on a film with his long-time friend and fellow actor Fanny Ardant, during the trial's conclusion. In addition to the suspended sentence, the court ordered Depardieu to pay €1,000 in compensation to each of the victims for what the judge described as 'secondary suffering', caused by the conduct of the defense during trial proceedings. This concept reflects the additional trauma experienced during public cross-examination. The judge underscored that there was no reason to doubt the victims' accounts, adding that the behavior described, including groping and vulgar comments, amounted to criminal assault. read more 2 Most Inspirational Green Projects in Egypt AEW Dynamite, WWE NXT to Strive over Viewership Tonight Egypt Marks 70th Anniv. of 2011 Revolution, National Police Day In Depth: WWE NXT Halloween Havoc In Depth: AEW Dynamite, WWE NXT Tuesday Viewership Strive Videos & Features WATCH: Egyptians Break Ramadan Fasts in Matariya Videos & Features GrEEk Campus Hosts Jobzella Fifth Career Fair Videos & Features 3 Iconic Ramadan Songs of All Times Videos & Features Top 4 Destinations to Visit in Upper Egypt Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt News The Jessica Radcliffe Orca Attack? 100% Fake and AI-Generated

How an AI Video Created the Jessica Radcliffe Orca Death Myth
H-Tayea A viral video circulating on social media has falsely claimed to show orca trainer Jessica Radcliffe being killed by a killer whale during a live performance. The dramatic clip, which appeared to depict a violent attack in front of an audience, sparked fear and outrage online. However, an investigation by Misbar, a fact-checking platform, has confirmed that the story is entirely fabricated. The video in question was generated using artificial intelligence, not filmed during a real-life event. The footage, which first spread widely on TikTok, carried a watermark linked to AI video-generation tools, including the VEO platform. On closer inspection, clear signs of AI creation were visible: the trainer's facial features lacked realistic symmetry, the orca appeared cartoonish with unnaturally smooth textures, and audience members in the background showed distorted expressions—all hallmarks of AI-generated imagery. There are no official reports, safety records, or credible news coverage of any trainer named Jessica Radcliffe or of such an attack occurring. The fabricated narrative appears to exploit public emotional reactions to animal attack stories, especially involving orcas. While this specific incident is fictional, orca-related trainer fatalities have occurred in the past. The most notable was in February 2010, when U.S. trainer Dawn Brancheau was killed by the orca Tilikum at SeaWorld Orlando, an event that sparked worldwide debate about keeping orcas in captivity and was featured in the documentary Blackfish. Other incidents include the 2009 death of Spanish trainer Alexis Martínez in Tenerife and a 1991 fatality in Canada's SeaLand of the Pacific. Orcas, the largest members of the dolphin family, are highly intelligent and social marine mammals that roam vast ocean territories. In captivity, they live in confined tanks and are trained through positive reinforcement to perform behaviors for public shows. However, confinement and separation from family pods can cause stress, sometimes leading to aggression. read more 2 Most Inspirational Green Projects in Egypt AEW Dynamite, WWE NXT to Strive over Viewership Tonight Egypt Marks 70th Anniv. of 2011 Revolution, National Police Day In Depth: WWE NXT Halloween Havoc In Depth: AEW Dynamite, WWE NXT Tuesday Viewership Strive Videos & Features WATCH: Egyptians Break Ramadan Fasts in Matariya Videos & Features GrEEk Campus Hosts Jobzella Fifth Career Fair Videos & Features 3 Iconic Ramadan Songs of All Times Videos & Features Top 4 Destinations to Visit in Upper Egypt Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani
