SILVANA SS

British Designer Silvana Seseri has worked in the design and manufacturing industry for over 1o years. From the age of 16 she carved her career working with a small team in a factory in Albania, whilst studying. Recognising her keen eye for detail and production to the highest standard, Silvana was soon promoted to a managerial position, supervising a group of 30 workers at the age of 18.

On arrival in London she worked at Coppernob, Oxford Street, London, which was the formative direction for her career and studies. Silvana entered "Young Designer of the year 2006" competition and was chosen to present her garment at the Clothes Show Live exhibition, Birmingham in 2007. She was selected amongst the final ten from a large number of entrants. The whole experience gave her the confidence and determination to pursue her dreams. She graduated with an Honours Degree in fashion at the University of Hertfordshire.

Today, Silvana’s interest is in eveningwear and haute couture with all the glitz of red carpet glamour. Her inspiration is from many aspects of art and influences including surrealism, such as Salvador Dali, and Elsa Schiaparelli, including the work of Roberto Cavalli, Giorgio Armani and Christian Dior. Her aim is to compliment the needs of today’s global beauty through garments that appeal to women’s shape and femininity.
