What's your educational background? |
|
| |
Orsola is predominantly self trained through years of re-working her own clothing to fit her distinctive style. Osrola & Filippo together devised methods of effective & sympathetic reproduction & sold their first collection exclusively through The Cross, Notting Hill in 1997 before setting up their own showroom in West London in 2000 & selling worldwide. |

What is the concept of your label? |
|
| |
A love of flea markets & vintage junkshops has led From somewhere to create beautiful one-off yet reproducible contemporary clothing from otherwise unwearable clothing & discontinued lines. Their beautiful one off pieces are made from respectfully recycled vintage clothing and encoporate retro fabrics & prints no longer available from modern sources. They are flirty, feminine, funny & always impeccably finished by highly skilled seamstresses. |

 |
What message do your creations send? |
|
| |
We speak of the time, love and attention that goes into looking at each piece as an individual, respectful of it's history & excited by it's future. |
