Default Re: Introduce yourself

My mother been fashion designer,i grew up surounded by it,and hate every bit of it.I just wanted plain normal closes not the stuff people where supposed to wear in 2 or 3 years.I was one of the very first to have those timberland shoes(28 years ago) in Paris,and been called a wood cutter for several month.Hated it.
I came to like having my cloth made on size,in India,first,then in Morocco .Plenty of tailors,one has to try a few then stick to a good one.It does cost more than the Fashion uniformes,i never understood the delight in being dress like the guy sitting next to you.I also love clothes that age well,"old is gold" the India says and how true.
