<p>It's all started back in 2017 when I decided to change my career path. Somehow fashion caught my attention. Without much thinking, I jumped right into it: I learned the basics of patternmaking, sewing and leatherworking</p>

<p>Since I wasn’t much convinced by the mass production and the fast fashion movement, I spontaneously leaned towards alternatives. Soon I focused on upcycling process and fashion accessories.</p>
<p>After some experimentation and many failed prototypes, I'm finally ready to present first saleable items </p>

<p>The products I want to test are various cardholders made from <a href="https://www.ananas-anam.com/" target="_blank">Pinatex</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upcycling" target="_blank">upcycled leather</a> and / or <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyvek" target="_blank">Tyvek</a>. I called it the Normal collection. </p>

<p>My goal is to design fashion accessories, using upcycled, eco-friendly materials, produce in limited editions and thus lessen the environmental harm. </p>
<p>The Normal cardholder is presented by my friend and artist <a href="https://www.nourawada.com" target="_blank">Nour Awada</a>, founder of <a href="https://www.lap-performance.com/" target="_blank">LAP -Laboratoire des Arts Performatives</a>. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks to raised funds, I'll be able to buy needed primary products such as fabrics, leather, pins, zippers, design of packaging and invest into my new collection. </p>
