How would you describe your style?
I can say simple and comfortable. I don’t like to dress effortlessly. I am a person who dresses modestly, takes care to choose the right products produced with sustainable raw materials, made with appropriate fabrics and neat patterns, and shoppers according to personal style rather than trends.
What inspires you?
Nature, natural raw elements, beautiful fabric and materials.
