WHEN YOU START TO DESIGN CLOTHES?
Well it all starts with a story of an imaginary man.We define with the team his personnality, entourage and is life. Then colors ,fabrics and volumes are selected and i start doing some samples myself .I don t do sketch so much and prefer working straight on the cut and fabrics. I like to approach working in the same way as I would if I was cooking, which means I have all the supplies and start mixing things together until I get to the point and I find the right balance for the garment.the silhouette .
