Globalises her fashion sense and style
She is always travelling the world and makes sure that she looks on point. And she tries to globalise her fashion sense.
“The continuous globalisation of fashion creates a thin line between local and international trends. But I think our different cultures are really what sets us apart. This in the way we incorporate modern designs to our traditional materials. These offer a fresh inspiration and insights into global fashion trends.”
