1. Tell us about your background and journey.

First of all, we want to let everyone know that we are two designers of two sisters, Vlora and Kaltrina. Being a designer is not only our work or business is our passion and behind all of this we have a history, but this is also our tradition, we have been raised on this breath we have inherited from our mother and we want this tradition to continue and to pass to our new generations.

Besides our work responsibilities to lead a company with three showrooms and a big production team, we are two mothers and we try to spend time also with our family and children.

 

2. Fashion industry is often considered women-centric and stereotypes men? What's your opinion?

We think that this stays just a fact that the Fashion industry is stereotyped for men, but it is fading with time. We know many fashion icons that are dressed by men. Some men left traces on Fashion history and they still influence a lot of people on this path.

 

3. How can one become a successful fashion designer according to you?

To have a strong desire and will to achieve all the goals, to not give up despite all the fatigue you feel and challenges that are at the beginning and continue in any part of the journey,  our difficulties that every business has or even life itself, but if the will is strong the wishes come true.


5. Who is your favorite fashion designer and why?

Our favorite Fashion Designers are Elie Saab and Zuhair Murad. The reason that they are our favorite is that they stay on the exclusive line for dresses, and details that are approximately similar to us.

 

6. Do you have any tips for people who want to join this field?

To be confident, to work hard for what they want to achieve and what they want to be. Do not give up and don’t get disappointed by what happened during their journey. To believe in yourself and make your dream come true.

 

7. Which is your favorite book and why?

Books that we love to read are books by people who have left their mark on history or that have changed people’s lives based on their stories. More special for me are the set books of the writer Jeans Sassoon the history of Princess Sultana tells a story of a Princes in the Middle East in UAE she loves women’s rights and for the lower class, she sells her expensive jewelry to open schools for women’s there and for the poor.
