Follow the journey to building my clothing label - fabric shopping, pattern cutting, fittings, collections, photo shoots, runway shows - let's have fun with fashion and see what goes on behind the scenes: from an idea to a dress there is a long, but extremely rewarding way to go.
The first thought that popped into my head a month ago, after I had the terrible accident where I broke my foot, was ‘How Will I WORK Now’? And my instinct was right: I was not allowed to. The doctor suggested bed rest. So I decided that I have to make the best of it, .... read more

‘Art And Consumerism’ – graduation project Painting 2008; 130x100cm, oil on printed canvas. I actually can’t believe it’s finally over: I’m not a student anymore.

My “Architectural Details” final composition. You might remember my latest school assignment from this post, and while all my classmates draw those architectural details like crazy people, I almost finished my composition on the computer, saving like two weeks of practical work in the atelier, with pen on canvas.
