F.Y.R.o.M.

The exhibition "woman's chemise from a festive costume" 'in the British Museum inspired me for my collection: F.Y.R.o.M. This exhibition about costumes of the entire Balkan region, lead me to look specific at the clothes of the country 'Former Yugoslavic Republic of Macedonia’; Macedonia.

In each region they use the same basic models, however with the local styles and decorative details you can see from which village they are. This is a nice aspect to keep the silhouettes fairly basic and give it my own style by material selection, placement and editing.
