Jean Pierre Khoury: The Dream Dress
In this episode our founder Nour Hassan speaks to Lebanese couture and Bridal designer Jean Pierre Khoury. JPK has dressed some of the world's biggest stars such as Yasmine Sabri, Mary J Blige, Myriam Fares and more. He is also the designer who created the iconic and timeless masterpiece that is Nour Hassan's wedding dress.
JPK's interest in the fashion industry can be traced back to the year 2000, when he was just four years old. Growing up in a household with a fashion designer mother and a painter and pianist father fostered an environment that was rich in artistic expression. Spending time with his mother Isabella Boustany at her atelier honed his skills and provided him with an early advantage in the industry.
