About The Great Silk Road 여성복 컬렉션

그레이트 실크로드는 동양과 서양을 이어준 역사적 교역로에서 영감을 받은 여성복 컬렉션이다. 이 컬렉션은 모자를 포함해 스무 벌의 의상으로 구성된다. 각 작품은 천연 소재로 제작되었으며 천연 실크 리본으로 수작업 장식되었다. 헤드드레스는 서로 다른 질감의 실크 원단을 사용해 전 과정 수작업으로 완성되었다. 패턴은 사막의 모래 위를 스치는 바람, 중국의 계단식 논, 그리고 암석 단층의 선을 재현한다. 각 아이템은 여행지에서 보내온 엽서처럼 제시된다. 이 쿠튀르 의상들은 서로 조합하여 일상생활에서도 착용할 수 있다.

Production Technology
For the manufacture of decor in my work, ribbons made of natural silk were used. These ribbons are sewn by hand. Patterns on products repeat patterns of wind in the sand, rice terraces in China, patterns of faults in rocks.
Design Challenge
This design was quite complicated in execution, because the main work was done manually. It took a lot of time. And I also wanted to convey a complex range of impressions from studying the history of the Great Silk Road.
Research
This collection is an attempt to combine the eastern and western cultures that are inside of me. This is a story about the beauty of the East, as travelers of the Great Silk Road once told about it many centuries ago. Each item is a postcard from different travel destinations or a valuable gift in the East. You can see the rice terraces of China, and the night peonies in the Japanese garden, and the wind patterns on the sands of the desert, and feel the coolness of the oasis, and open the Chinese casket
Inspiration
The Great Silk Road is not just a trade route, it is a unique historical phenomenon that introduced two different worlds - east and west. This is the appearance of new cities and countries, this is the spread of science and culture, this is the path to unknown and new discoveries. This collection is my view of the mysterious east. Blooming Japanese gardens, patterns of wind on the sands of the desert, cool oases, desert mirages, rice terraces, varnished Chinese caskets can all be seen in my collection.
Project Duration
The project began in 2013, when the first coat in this technique was created.
Then the collection was gradually replenished.
In 2018, an exhibition was held in Russia, the city of Samara, called the Great Silk Road.
in 2018, this collection took part in the contest "New Names in Design", the city of Samara, Russia
in 2018, the collection became the winner of the fashion festival, Russia, Samara.
in 2019, the collection won the Ulyanovsk fashion week contest
Operation Flow
All garments look alive. Different items of clothing go well together.
This is a couture clothing that is comfortable to wear in everyday life.
