What is the concept of your label? |
|

His designs combine eastern and western elements with urban street graffiti and underground grunge. In his designs Poverty and luxury blending, Evening dresses, ponchos and twisted baby-dolls. Silhouettes borrowed from the Tilka dress to the glamour of the 20s. Lavish wraparound and transparent colourful printed chiffons. Delicate silk in harmony with rough tattered cotton. Generous use of fabric creating space of air between the body and the garment. Courageous and desirable. |
