Fast fashion is a no no of course but design is a kind of art and art is a necessity in my belief.
Art is telling us where we are heading, what’s going on in the world and what will come.
Art is giving both the artist and the viewer beauty and some peace of mind in an often hectic everyday life.
Design is all around us. Our favorite tea cup, the chair we are sitting on, the bus we are waiting for, the socks we are wearing.
True art and design comes from within, from the subconscious mind of the designer or crafter. And often with inspiration from our beautiful nature that is so generously sharing all its glory.
Designing clothes is basically like painting a picture or at least it is to me.
I’m not talking about designing clothes just to follow trends and sell more or copying for the sake of increasing the numbers of buying customers.
Yes of course the designer wants to be able to live on their talent and their urge to create. I am one of them. But the amount of clothes that are becoming landfills all over the world is ridiculously high.
