New Zealand’s hottest emerging designer Roxanna Zamani is making fashion waves with her Incongruous Collection, receiving FTV’s Designer Award, Mittelmoda’s Wedding Italian Style Award, and iD Dunedin Fashion Week’s Emerging Designer Award.
Roxanna Zamani’s Incongruous collection is a collaboration of 100% silk and leather, which is the inspiration for the name of the collection. Roxanna Zamani’s work places a thin line between fashion and art, making each one of her pieces a wearable sculpture. Roxanna Zamani is set to release her new collection Antithesis in the Fall of 2011. Roxanna’s Antithesis collection is ironically the opposite her Incongruous collection, offering softer fabrics.
