My Fashion and Ameynra Dance Fashion lines

Hi friends and people online !

I write this becauseof receiving many questions about what I’m doing in fashion.

1st of all, I’m fashion designer.

Metal is my life ! And Metal Queen is my username on social websites; I have an another nick-name – Ameynra, same as a name of my brand. I sure that being in metal is – 1st of all – LIVE BY IT, and everybody can sing well when they would like. Metal ladies/womens/girls – we can be a designers, journalists, promoters, and we are in metal. Metal women – we also can play music, do art, and just a few of those who are in metal, are band singers. And metal is a huge part of life ! And for me, making a metal clothing lines is only a part of my fashion projects.

As Lady Sofia Goldberg, I make accents on a bright appeal in my designs, using a color palette of bright, solid, neon colors that combined, mixed with traditional heavy metal black leather and glam of Russian Empire of 18th century. The Dynasty of Metal Kings began in 17th century….

Ameynra BellyDance fashion – my designs, only one of a few themes. A brand… It was founded and opened as Ameynra “BellyDance-only”, but I don’t want to stop on only “dance-4ever” theme. Long time ago we were in Poland with our “Theatre & Fashion” show, it was mostly my mom’s ideas, I was a young girl, teenager. My ideas were only a colors and its combinations.

In a fashion my major theme is can be described as “A rich young & beauty lady who likes travels & dreaming about the Future” Yes, I was born in a rich family, and I’m only one child. So, roots… golden roots… I’m from Caucasus & love Middle Eastern culture because it is native for me.
I love Las Vegas. Ferrari-styled bright-yellow dress is one from a huge collection of specific color dresses, created by new fashion designer Sofia Metal Queen !

I was in India, there are many, many beautiful fabric & embroidered materials. My best friend Miriam was in Brazil & Japan. I got many ideas from her stories, sketches. A most stunning, beautiful sequined & beaded fabrics i saw in Iran & Egypt. All I may say – one word “WOW !!!” What a pleasure to work with ! Many of the best fabrics were made in Iran. We hope that everything will be ok there. I have a few customers who prefer to buy dance costumes which made only using exported from there fabrics. They knows a quality ! And Middle Eastern themes are in some of my fashion projects. As well as European & U.S.-based styles, for sure.

Ameynra fashion as idea was based on world famous New York world’s fair 1939. I saw many original souvenirs made at that time, and media. My friends Bill & his wife have a huge collection, lol. Idea of fashion is based on that time, glory and sunrise. I love that symbolic, and style. And love NY. I hate simple-modern style 19970-80 yy, without that cute ideas which we call “fen’kis”, i love a rich life, fancy. close to 1890, 1930-40 yy.

MY “EVERYDAY-WEAR”, “STREET-WEAR” & “WEEKEND-TIME” IDEAS, EACH ONE IS TAKEN FROM THE COLLECTION OF 25-45 IN EACH LINE. I was in San Francisco, CA, many times & my “Street wear” collections are based on what I may call always remember “My Frisco”. I was in Italy & some of my “everyDay wear”, also dance costumes are in pro-Italian style. When i was in Detroit, MI, i was amazed how exotic, beautiful, wonderful haircuts, hairdecors African-American women makes. Beautiful ! Really, it was most impressive that I remember from visits to Detroit. My friend Lucie was in Tokyo & said that there women’s hairstyle is super-unique. I got a few of ‘most-stunning’ ideas from her video that she recorded in Tokyo. My great friend Miriam was in Brazil, she loves their culture, and we think about making together a pro-Brazilian style summer beach apparel line. I was in NY, there a special culture, elegant. I have a 4 fashion projects collections that made in NY-style.

METAL STYLE PROJECTS. I was in night clubs in NJ, and was in small town named Old Bridge, only one day i visited it. All i can say in this case – that is a very nice little town, i remember ice cream store there and road, and city streets for a while… Some of my exotic pro-metal fashion ideas based on my memories of that small town. 1st metal show i saw when I was only 10 years old. A festival in Moscow, end of September 1991. Metallica and other bands were there, but i remember Metallica much better than other. And i was thinking about – if i’ll be in age 20, 30 years – what i may wear for metal show ? And i since childhood love metal accents in everyday-wear apparel. I saw many shows, I love metal music & planning to do some designs in metal style as “Metal Style” series.

MY “SPACE & FUTURE” PROJECTS. I STARTED TO WORK USING MORE ACCENTS ON THESE WHEN I MOVED TO HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA. Almost half of my paintings are about space. why ? – because mystery is like magnetic target, and space travels theme is native to place where i live, Hollywood. So, if space travels, space fashion comes by itself !

So, something is gonna be.
Wish a me good luck !
Thanks !

Some sassy nasty people asked me about art freebies

Oh my, I heard a lot about crisis time. But, art is one of ways of making money to support my family & friends, they live outside of U.S. Simply think, if it is crisis time, in other countries much less opportunity to earn enough $$$ to live normally. Have you heard about situation on Caucasus ? If not, watch TV and make some research ! I care about my people. They need support, lol ! So, I sell artworks. I need a lot of money to support my people. I think you understand me.

Recently some sassy, nasty people emailed me that they make movie. They said that they are award-winners, and a lot of bla bla bla about about themselves, but said nothing about what budget they have for ordering my artwork. They said that like some of my art about outer space and space travels, and they wish to get my art for free. What a bad joke !!! I sell space-related art for price from $500 to $25,000 USD. I work hard to create good quality artwork. And, imagine sassy ones who asked me to donate art for making some ordinary movie, in which somebody will play role of author of my art !!!! How somebody can be author of my art ? I'm an author !!! It sounds very offending if somebody will try to say lie that he or she is an author of my art ! But, those idiots were sassy and nasty enough to offer me so-named "credit" in list of background info. Ha ha, someone trys to get my copyright by saying in movie terrible lies about authorship, and then offer me "credit". They said that it will be tremendous help to promote art because of long term of list in their foolish film about some silly flying telescope. Ha ha ha !!! I live in Hollywood, the capital of cinema. I know that Hollywood is overflooded by ordinary scripts & films now. Sci-fi fantasy books written by Russian writers are much more interesting than such simply story about ugly flying device, because their stories have a plots based on real life. Filmmaker have to have a huge talent to create good movie like "Terminator" or "Back to the future". And, if in role will be an artist in action, why not offer me that role ? I'm professional dancer, photomodel, and I live in Hollywood.

Also, offering just to be noted in list of credits is simply ridiculous !!! I have my own YouTube channel. What reason to give artwork $15,000 value, to unknown nasty people to get only small note in their ordinary movie ? Haha, I have about 1000 video views on my YouTube channel, everyday. How many people will watch ordinary movie which is not made in Hollywood ? I heard that sometimes just less than dozen people come to watch such premiere. So, why think that I'm fool enough to waste my $15,000 on nothing ??? I have no hate, but sassy heartless people who want to get for free something that costs $15,000 or more, are blocked from contacting me forever. No freebies. I need a lot of money to support my family. I care about good people that really need help at this crisis time.
