The Design

About BlackSwan Dametøj

Fristelse af den sorte. Designet kombinerer forskellige teksturer af de sorte stoffer og detaljer med gyldne tilbehør. Forskellige teksturer af stofferne kan gøre hele kollektionen mere interessant. Ikke kun én måde at bære, mikse og matche stilen afhænger af dagens følelse. Håndlavet strik med hækling giver mere smag til kollektionen. Alle sammen for at lave denne fristelseskollektion, for at få dagen til at falde ind i det.
