The collection features different patterns: Bouclé, inspired by the iconic jackets of fashion myth Coco Chanel, Tweed, sourced from the traditional British cloths but adding new shades of colour, Tartan,...

A true fusion between East and West, between the classical motifs of two great cultures, Persia and Italy. What makes the project so unique is also the use of sophisticated UV print...
