I stumbled across this intriguing fashion talent Parisa, a Dubai based fashion designer whose designs are eye catching to another level! She explores ideas that
have a balance between figurative and abstract, playing with colours is the
highlight in much of her works, mostly manifesting playfulness and innocence.
The aesthetics and lively spirit of youth culture is where her passion comes
alive.
I caught up with her over email and quizzed her on her incredibly bold collection, what inspires her and makes this brand new designer tick.
Why did
you decide to get into fashion and what do you love about your job?
Initially I was going for fine arts but after
doing a little research I realized fine arts is too boring for me so I decided
to go into fashion where there is chaos and fun. Fashion design is like a dress
up game, I think it's an art form that everyone needs. For instance, not
everyone will need a painting or a sculpture but they would definitely need
some clothes to put on and style themselves.
Describe your working
day?
I wake up very early, sometimes at 5
am only because I can think more clearly in the mornings. I have my little
breakfast quickly and start working until 3pm, if I really love the
project then I keep working until late night.
What's been your
highlight since starting?
my graduation collection RESTLESS got selected
by Jamal Abdourahman, founder of Vancouver Fashion Week,
which is super cool and I'll be showcasing my works in Vancouver
Fashion Week in September
What inspires you?
Art films and music videos, performance art in
general. My graduation
collection is immensely inspired by an Electro-pop musician known as GRIMES,
she inspires me a lot. she's like the living late-90's goth anime character. I
also really admire Nick Cave's Soundsuit performances.
What
other designers do you love at the moment?
My favorite designers at the moment are Josep
font, Issa grimm, Cassandra Verity Green, Carmen Channers and Kenzo.
Five items you can't
live without?
My laptop + the
internet, money, coffee, food and my car.
