She has been involved in exploring, classifying, and re-interpreting material manipulationin recent years. Collection No.1 is part of the research titled “Material Manipulations Today”, winning the first place in the Textile category of the Arts Section of the National Scientific and Art Student Conference.

Research was taken into consideration for design aspects, but stress is laid on creative concepts of independent thoughts. This procedure of dress design is still current: although it dates back to times past, there are countless opportunities left unexplored.

It’s speciality lies in the sewing technology ideas that change the look and feeling of fabrics, thereby endowing fabrics with additional content: the texture is modified, an ornamental or shaping function is added, ergo it is reinterpreted. Textiles are shaped for the human figure, particularly for a specific person, so a uniquely plastic effect is produced. The scope for action is increased (in terms of shine, thickness, coloring, and patterns) by the use of various fabrics, thereby each piece can be even more individual. The innovative and intuitive results of research with a stable grounding and wide intellectual horizons are represented by absolutely special and unique garments.

The target was to elaborate a structure based on extensive research. I made chronological parallels and comparisons and clashes (classical vs. modern, traditional vs. futuristic, elegant vs. extravagant...), then I analyzed them in terms of systematic folding (pleating, smocking, tucking...) and from special aspects (aesthetic, artistic, social scientific, economic demands, changes, developments...).

Re-interpretation started in regard to the origins of fabric manipulation, and the rise of demands therefore. Technologies are discussed from the most important aspects of dressing, until they are brought to perfection. It is worthy of special attention how fabric manipulation demands changed in society, how necessities turned into arts.
