In addition to incredible shopping experiences, all things cliché like climbing the Eiffel Tower and eating baguettes and pastries for breakfast, Paris has lots to offer to fashion lovers whose travel bag now has a new compartment for a hand sanitiser, a set of trendy face coverings to match every outfit and a box of travel-size soap thins. Fashion Weeks have gone digital, we all know that. But don't we all want to be a part of the real-life catwalk though?
In the spirit of sustainable living, sensible buying and making the most of what you have, I decided to bring together this list of ideas for how to use your empty notebooks.
The nostalgic notes of cuisine I am used to comprises of an array of dishes brought to my hometown by Russians, Uzbeks, Chinese, Koreans, Armenians, Georgians, Turks, Iranians and Afghanis. From borscht and manti dumplings to kebab, from pilav to Korean salads markets, the rainbow of tastes and colours is what I crave the most. And an absolute no to frozen food which I still rarely buy here in the UK as it’s a part of our culture to eat freshly bought.
It all starts with an idea. A simple sketch drawn in my mind made from tiny little pieces of inspiration... The canvas mockup is then fitted on a fitting model who helps me understand how it feels to wear the piece.
We don’t want the standard, the usual and the boring. We want imperfect, striving, we want ones with the desire to challenge isolation and make a connection with one another.
