My New York Dream

How my New York dream was born? I fell in love with it the moment I stepped onto its streets, and I know that I’m not the only one who felt the same way. Everything amazed me, but most of all its energy.

I had my first fashion show at the New York Fashion Week exactly three years ago. My main challenge was to introduce my creations in one of the biggest fashion centers in the world in the right way. Deep down in my heart, I knew that I would feel complete in New York. On the first day of rehearsals, I felt amazing! The energy of the city, freedom of expression, great vibe – all of this amazed me and my New York dream was born.

Love For The New York Fashion

Fashion in New York is fascinating. New Yorkers are very creative when it comes to their fashion sense and style. New York fashion can’t be easily explained. It’s all around – in the streets, people, way of life.

It’s not easy to define fashion, especially to me as a designer. However, each period has its own direction, its style, which is often standardized. That’s the base, then every individual adds their own personal touch. Being fashionable in this city is very easy because this city loves and embraces the differences. Diversity is the first thing that catches your eye. New Yorkers are not afraid to experiment and mix styles that are the absolute opposites.

New York Fashion Inspiration

This city is a great place to get inspired, and also go through personal style transformation.

I personally find the inspiration in its energy that makes me move, explore, go further, leave the everyday comfort, change. Tourists, yellow taxies, rain coming down, wet streets shining, Broadway, subway – these are just some of the things that give me new ideas!

New York takes me to a whole other dimension, where my creations are becoming extraordinary. New York energy is embedded in every piece I make. It encourages you to be bold, unique, the best version of yourself. it invites you to come and live the New York dream!

Functional VS Original Style

What is functional, and what is original? And can those two get along? Is it hard and expensive to have an original style?

Originlity Is Important

Quite often we witness functional style, which means wearability and ease of combining with other garments, which in the world of fashion usually implies a commercial line. It has conquered the world entirely, and today it is probably most wanted. It is very accessible, in every manner of speaking. Another side of the coin, when it comes to commercial style, is seeing a huge number of people on the streets, dressed in the same or similar way. Given that, trends are not completely acceptable to my opinion, but, having in mind the current offer, it seems that trend remains as the only solution.

Originality in my works takes a special, actually, the first place. Vision, from which it all departs, is something that I enjoy the most, all through the process of realization of the final product. Exactly this expectation of the closing result is what I could call the positive stress. A small dose of this euphoria, which always carries me while I am working, is enough for the inspiration which, then, rises the most.

Do You Have To Choose?

To be original requires, above all, being your true self. We express what we hold inside in different ways, certainly through art. Someone’s medium for self-expression might be dance or painting, and it frequently is clothing.

Original and functional can definitely go together. The choice of quality fabrics and clear ideas are the winning combinations. Outfits that stand out are those that can be worn in different ways, the so-called multipractic items.

The aspect of aesthetics, whatever the clothing style is, stands to be the most authoritative; of course, together with the feeling of comfort, faith in one’s self and smile out of pleasure.
