Libya pushing to be removed from travel ban list
Minister Mohammed Siyala
TRIPOLI - Muslimchronicle
Libya’s internationally recognized government has appealed to the US to drop or ease a travel ban imposed on its citizens by US President Donald Trump, the Foreign Ministry said on Thursday.
“The Libyan Foreign Ministry, through its embassy in Washington, has begun to take measures to lift Libya from the list of countries and to ease the restrictions on Libyan citizens,” the ministry said in a statement.
Libya is one of six Muslim-majority countries subject to the travel ban. This week the US Supreme Court allowed the ban to take full effect while litigation over its ultimate validity continues.
The ban was also discussed at a meeting between Libyan Foreign Minister Mohammed Siyala and US Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Elaine Duke on Monday, the statement said.

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led his
