Evgeniya Naumova ("EN") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work Mosaic Fantasy tippets and headscarfs. Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
EN : The main idea was to create beautiful and balanced design for textile accessories, which will be able to emphasize an individual stile of their owners.
EN : I wanted to create a unique collection of tippets and headscarfs, united by one theme, which will be able to use in different shapes for different cases and seasons.
EN : I print my designs in several pieces trying to do all of them unique. I don’t print one motive without changes for many times. I will print them for a small edition and realize in some clothing stores.
EN : About three months from idea to realization in material.
EN : Textile is one of the most necessary things in people’s everyday life: clothes, interior textile, linens and etc. Scarfs, headscarfs and tippets are used all over the world. I like to work with textile – it is very “warm”, soft and plastic material. I’m inspired both of motives for my print and fabric itself.
EN : I don’t have plan to sell or lease the production rights, I produce it myself. Digital printing provides in the manufacture, not by myself. But all author rights belong to me.
EN : It was my inspiration and challenge and my wish to improve myself like a textile designer.
EN : The target customers of this design are women who love world of fashion and style.
EN : The main set is the unique design of collection, which consists of tippets and headscarfs. Each piece of collection has its own finished composition. It is not a piece of reported fabric, but a unique a certain size composition. Big size of tippets provides a use of them not only like a traditional tippet or scarf, but also like summer’s top.
EN : “Mosaic fantasy” means my inspiration from worldwide mosaic works, which was gathered, rethinked and designed in my own fantasy work.
EN : Sketches are drawn first on paper, and after finished in computer graphic program. Digital printing was utilised for the silk fabric. Digital printing technology is very conveniently for small quantities of fabrics. The last stage is manual one - seam processing of prepared tippets and headscarfs.
EN : Author print of all collection’s items, I think.
EN : Technology is the way to realize design in material. Without it it’s a picture, but not a textile accessory.
EN : It’s the best way to get adequate assessment of your design, to get more recognition and promotion of your design and brand.
EN : During creating this collection, the idea of next collection was born. Of course, I upgraded my skill in drawing and using Photoshop too.
