Ayman Helweh - A traveler of the world, I was born in Aleppo, Syria, the world's oldest continually inhabited city and a UNESCO World Heritage site.
I am currently doing my PhD in Computer Science and staying in Georgetown, the capital of the island and state of Penang, on the west coast of peninsular Malaysia.
I joined Trend Hunter in February 2008 just a month after I started my first ever blog, and it's been a wild ride ever since. When it comes to trend hunting, I have a passion for fashion, photography, advertising, design and decor and the fascinating pop culture. Less [+/-]

REACTIONS
 Suicidal Clothing CampaignsThis is a duplicate of this trend, which was published in the same day. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Chocolate Saucy ShootsThe book is already out, its by Rankin. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Epic Female Fashion CoversHmmm, the 'epic cover' which is the center of the title should be the main image. Right now its image #10, so it doesnt even show inside the trend that revolves about it. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Passionate Embrace ShootsThis is not an editorial. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Art Movement EditorialsThis was published a couple of weeks ago (see here). Marissa Liu left a comment on that one too, I am surprised she didnt recognize this as a duplicate :) Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Honoring Ugly BeautyThe name of the book is 'Extreme Beauty in Vogue' and you're linking to a different book in Amazon. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Political Peace PrizesWe need Kanye West to be in the audience when Obama accepts the prize... Comment by Ayman Helweh |
|
Political Peace Prizes Such a bad move & decision. Nobel prize for peace? The man has not done anything for peace (or pretty much anything) yet. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Deceitful Celeb EditorialsI think 'Deceitful' is too strong of a word to describe this shoot. It'd be deceitful if they used a lookalike or made her look like someone else in particular. This case is the opposite of that, they're actually not using her star power in exchange for a more artsy vibe. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Yellow Fever EditorialsAraki is an awesome photographer, nice tribute. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Transformative SneakersThis has already been published in TH... twice!! Here & here Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Booty-Focused EditorialsNow that's an ass that would swallow a G-string. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Black Crow DressesLady Gaga is a TH goldmine. In one evening alone, she pulled enough looks and actions to write 5-8 trends. Here is a break down of her different VMA looks by Nicola, who was behind the styling. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
Kanye West Apologizes on Jay Le... (VIDEO)
 Bloody PerformancesThis was an awesome artistic performance. The last bit when she starts bleeding after she plays the piano wildly, and is then hanging like a dead corpse from the rope while the clicks of the paparazzi start going crazy. So much social commentary that is beyond the novelty of a flashy pop performance. And notice that after this performance, she wore a blood-red Alexander McQueen with her face obstructed, in the aftermath of this struggle with fame. The whole evening was performance art, and each outfit was part of it, you just need to look deeper. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 40 Cuckoo Coffee TablesGreat cluster. But it would have been better if it used another image, considering that the image is from a new trend that is just a few positions below it on the published page... There are 39 other trends to choose from that aren't as new. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 iPod & Kindle KillersI agree with the point of this trend. Unless a device offers unparralleled efficiency & quality that cant be found in others, why buy a device that does one thing only when you have the option of having more features? Comment by Ayman Helweh |
 Self-Service HotelsI'm not sure the term 'self-service' applies here, its just a hotel room with a mini-kitchen. pretty weird if they're finding it novel. Comment by Ayman Helweh |
