My concept stems from the story of my grandmother's journey to this country. She worked hard as a seamstress, and in the little spare time she had, made beautiful handmade scarfs from the scraps she would find around the workplace. It was the selling of these pieces that afforded my mother the one-way ticket to England where she would create our family. This story opened my curiosity to explore traditional Romanian garments, obsessing over the intricate embroidery techniques and unique tapestries.
