Ahmed Amer

Ahmed Amer is a Beirut-based fashion designer, illustrator and the founder of amer, the label he launched in 2018. He studied interior architecture at the Lebanese University before joining Creative Space Beirut in 2014, the non-profit school for fashion design where he trained and now teaches; the brand’s gender-fluid tailoring and hand-drawn organic motifs come out of that double education, between construction and illustration.

Cloth is also his medium for installation work. Textured Love, shown in 2025 at We Design Beirut inside the former Abroyan textile factory as part of Threads of Life, stacked panels of deadstock fabric carrying Levantine and Aghabani embroidery, each layer credited to the artisans who made it: a piece about renewal, memory and community rather than a collection.
