Thank you Polimoda for this beautiful opportunities that Ive been lucky enough to get. Thanks to all the buyers (the biggest thanks goes to Stefania) for the meaningful conversations about the industry and for sharing their experience. I live for well thought, elaborate clothing so when you put me next to it for hours it cant get better than that. (Thank you Martina for helping me with my CV) (yes I do treat it as my Oscar, what are you gonna do about it)
