Certain warrior stance is always needed to realize and to follow paths that differ from the mainstream. Therefore courage, faith and strength as well as being the fundamental starting points of the developed ‘NOT UGLY’ system approach and collection, have helped the implementation of collections visual direction in the form of warriors harnesses, rhythm and pattern.
The collection is realized as an entity with alternative, tactile fibres and materials that target to produce sense of well-being and friendliness. Additionally attention has been paid to quality, style, and finish in order to strengthen the possibility for long lasting history of togetherness between the wearer and the garment.
