Inventive designer Elisa Palomina,  epitomises the ethos of meappropriatestyle.  In a recent interview at Central St. Martins College (London, 7 November 2012)  Ms. Palomino advised students:  “(to) be really loud and say, ‘This is who I am and this is what I do.’  Build up your personality and put it into your work because that will be your trademark, it’s what people will notice.”  Aptly stated Ms. Palomino.  We should all live by the words:  be free to be me.

fashion designer, interview, Mary Katrantzou, prints, structural, Suzy Menkes

Autumn, 2012

I had the pleasure of attending an interview with the charismatic

Mary Katrantzou

at The Fashion and Textile Museum, London.

She is passionate about her work and eloquently articulated

the aesthetic of print and structural elements in her creations.

 Her designs are kaleidoscopic:   colourful, vibrant, lyrical, engaging.

…

I am definitely a follower of her creative tune …

play on Ms. Katrantzou, play on

…

Meet Mary Katrantzou:

The pied piper of print perfection, the amazing Mary Katrantzou,

discusses her creative process and design inspirations with

fashion journalist Suzy Menkes.

…

Listen/Look/Love

You too will follow where she leads.
