Evgenia Jivkova shared: „My autumn-winter collection is influenced by the spirit of the 60s and the 70s years and party – by the 50s. The formula of the elegance for the autumn-winter season for me is „classics + extravagance”. The mixture of the forms, of the textiles and of the colors is especially actually today. The lady’s fashion presupposes more radical combinations of conservative and ultra fashion elements in the clothing. The women, to those are directed my newest proposals are brave from the point of view of the color decisions and ready to accept the big variety in the details of the toilets that I offer to them”.
