The London-based label by Egyptian-Iraqi designer Serag Elmeleigy returns with a new drop that pairs streetwear staples with hand-finished details.
Streetwear is at its best when it says something. Not just with logos and loud graphics, but with design choices that carry history, place, and a point of view. That is exactly the lane Suez Studio continues to carve out with its latest collection, “Desired Paths”, a seasonal drop that blends easy silhouettes with traditional techniques and a clear sense of regional identity.
Suez Studio is a London-based label founded by Egyptian-Iraqi designer Serag Elmeleigy, whose work consistently reinterprets Arab culture and heritage through modern wardrobe essentials. With “Desired Paths”, that ethos feels especially tangible. The concept is rooted in movement and the idea of trusting the process, even when the route ahead is not perfectly mapped out. The result is clothing that looks effortless, but rewards a closer look.
A key part of the collection is its collaboration with Threads of Hope Cairo, a social enterprise focused on training and employing marginalised Egyptian women, as well as refugee and migrant women, through artisanal craft. Through this partnership, the pieces lean into hand-applied details such as embroidery, ajour stitching, and appliqué, giving everyday staples a considered, human finish.
Expect a tight edit of streetwear building blocks: jackets, wide-leg trousers, and wearable shirting, alongside printed T-shirts and low-key accessories like beanies that pull the look together. The palette stays grounded in neutral and deeper tones, think black, white, burgundy and khaki, letting texture, stitching, and pattern do the talking.
In a space that often runs on hype cycles, “Desired Paths” feels like a reminder that the strongest streetwear comes from story and substance. If you want pieces that work hard in your rotation and still mean something, this is a drop worth knowing.
