Selected varieties are resistant to frost and disease. Each plant tells its own story, so it was not easy to put them together. It had an interesting harmony of old-fashioned roses with perennials and spices, which gave us modernity and nostalgia, eclecticism. At the same time, I wanted to say that the rose is not a spoiled and pretentious plant, which can perfectly blend into the modern and historical spaces of the city, ring and flourish, delight people.

Therefore, the functionality of the garment is one of the most important characteristics. Another equally important feature is the easy adaptability of the garment to fit in a person’s closet with the clothes they already have. This is important when buying and designing clothes. The fabrics were very careful so that the person feels comfortable in autumn and winter. All this combines my experience both as a gardener and as a clothing designer ”, comments the creator about the collaboration that unites the two great passions of life.
