She believed in his talent and trusted him to design one of her most remarkable looks. That moment became a huge turning point in his career and opened doors for collaborations with many other celebrities.

George now has his own menswear line, and many male celebrities have worked with him, including Joseph Attieh, Saad Lmjarred, Nassif Zeitoun and Nicolas Mouawad.
