| Haute
Couture is something really exclusive. It follows |
| the
dictates of the imagination and its conversion into |
| art. |
|
| I am an
artist in many senses, a sculptor of forms, a |
| painter of
coulors, an architect, of the cut, a musician for harmony, a philosopher
of |
| style and
an actress for presentation. It is very important for me to feel the
material |
| with my
fingers, to have a picture in my head. It is my soul, my philosophy not
only to |
| design, but
with needle and thread to find myself new ways when thousands of others |
| make the
same steps. Can you imagine that a sculptor only makes a sketch and then
|
| has some
one else make the sculpture for him? |
| |
| My
principles are to wear only my own creations every day and only to show
photos |
| from real
life. In this way I provoke my environment and fight against the wearing
of |
| black and
jeans. |
|
| I have my
own style of cutting. Often without side seams and hem-lines, but made |
| with
hundreds of small knots to form folds and drapes, or for the love of
geometry, |
| made from
only one piece of fabric. All this gives what appears to be, at first
sight, |
| just a
normal elegant dress with an extraordinary and extravagant touch. |
|
|
This is all done without
using a sewing-machine. Every single seam, every frill, |
|
ruffle, hem-line, every
pearl is sewed and stiched by hand. For hours, for days, |
|
for weeks. For my creations
I use only natural materials like silk, wool, cashmere |
|
and angora. Feminine
straight lines, clear sihlhouttes dominate, always combined |
|
with a bag and a hat made
from the same fabric as the outfit, without too much |
|
glitter. I create a very
chic but wearable garderobe. |
|
|
"Nevertheless, she does not
want to make "Prêt-a-porter" fashion, but remain |
|
exclusive. The collection
will again contain part of her soul.."(Aarg. Zeitung 1.9.04) |
|
" Every woman wearing one
of these ensembles feels like a queen." (Russische |
|
Schweiz 4.05).The
journalists have correctly noticed this. |
|
|
My fashion has nothing to
do with trends and mass fashion. These dresses are |
|
not for every woman, but
for every woman who appreciates individuality. Such |
|
a woman can buy herself
everything that is to be had for money. She has an |
|
exquisite taste, and that
is why she is always searching for something really |
|
exclusive. |
|
|
What con be more exclusive
than a unique Haute Couture outfit made to measure |
|
by hand. |
|
|
I'm looking forward to
advice you in this question. |
