Editors’ Note: We weren’t too surprised when we saw a GQ.com story this week featuring Houston-raised model Faith Lynch as a celebrity, in a roundup of what the mag’s “stylish friends” are wearing to get dressed up, “even while we all stay home.” We knew that Lynch, who selected a strapless leather mini-dress for the article, was destined for success as a big-time model when we featured her on our cover and in this fashion spread in March 2017.

Saba Syed, Founder of Oasis Moroccan Bath

How did you get to where you are today? My journey began with a need to be financially independent and an even a deeper drive to create a lasting legacy.
