How do you feel your work was received?
I received a lot of positive comments, actually it was mainly
positive – to be honest, there was the worry that reactions would be
mostly negative, but it wasn’t the case. I try to focus on giving
attention to details in my work, but you never know how others will
receive it. Sometimes I can look at a piece of work and think it is
great but it doesn’t mean others will – especially by those who
travel the world, constantly looking at great fashion pieces.
However, I was complimented on my sewing skills and my attention
to detail. This meant a lot to me.
What did you think of the Serbian designers?
I liked most of them. There were a couple of designs which I
thought had a bit too much going on but Serbian culture promotes
this style. One of my favourites was Lepa Couture, who also
showcased some beautiful pieces of fabric. Mladen Baron and Milica
Tričković, who had showcased in Malta in previous years, also had
brilliant collections. They really focused on the little details. Ivana
Nikolic had a really creative concept with hand-drawn sketches that
seemed to be sewn into the garments and Equi showcased female
suits and top hats which I thought was quite original.
