'Her second collection is inspired from futuristic elements and with the use of synthetic fabrics, strong metal colors and, by maintaining the elegant side of the female outfit, it creates a very impressive and modern collection with lines that sometimes embrace the female body and others, they result to volumes and symmetries.'

Asel & Eleonara won the award for Best Trendsetter and at 21:30 they will present their second collection at AXDW.

'The main source of inspiration for Asel & Eleonora is the punk subculture of the 80's, which has become part of our ordinary lives and has been accepted by any contemporary woman.

Their designs are not ordinary clothes. They have a sort of sensation and reflect social elements like all punk products. They call their second collection "Life Less Ordinary", using a lot of steam-punk elements, influenced by scientists, pioneers, and discoverers of the steam period, who left behind the biggest human openings. This direction is very close to the designers' personality, who apart from being also mathematicians, they have walked through the same similar period of their lives.' text source: AXDW
