That’s how it was the sewing was as much for the poor and orphaned girls as for these guys different from the others, one way to accomplish by means of history. All for one reason or another, they needed this Fantasy that was the creation of clothes, so he can overcome the miseries of existence. For many,  fashion was permanent pursuit of affection. (ERNER, 2005.)

Presented as the final Project at the course od Fashion Design at teh University Fumec, Fashion Collection: Mu Permanent pursuit of affection is the tale of the four stages of ups and downs of being in a relationship. ´´I turned my frustrations about love into something real. They became clothes. ´´

Brocade, shantung, silk, tulle, organza, velvet and voile, unpretentious forms, contrasting volumes and vaporous, cut and rigid. I represent absence in the whites as an object of love, enchantent being represented in the beiges, red as passion and finally black as disillusionment.

As so, I would wait for the rest of my life, with or without pain.
