I find the inspiration wonderful and some of the designs are gorgeous! Some are less successful in integrating tradition into modern designs and textiles, yet the whole concept is very interesting.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment! I loved the idea, a pity I missed the presentation so I could have put more information...
DeleteHey, I was there also! Where is the design by Angelos Loukakis??? It was such a beautiful interpretation of Cretan folklore with the Yamamoto's feel. It's a pity it's not presented here.
ReplyDeleteIndeed! A pity I missed it!
