Arijana Kajdić, M.F.A Fashion Design, blended elements of masculine design with feminine treatment for her collection, all the while paying homage to the women who have nurtured her, in particular her grandmother. Her collection included an immense amount of handwork, ranging from hand-dyeing to hand-beading. Prestigious French lace company Sophie Hallette provided the lace, and other fabrics used included alpaca, mohair, wool, suiting, cotton, silk, and gauze.
