In ultimele postari v-am vorbit despre ce facem noi la Pinkat, insa mai putin despre motivul pentru care facem asta. Cel mai important este faptul ca suntem tineri si ne-am cam saturat de produse cu eticheta de Made in China, Turcia sau orice alta tara decat Romania. Ne-am saturat de materiale proaste, care te zgarie sau iti provoaca alergii ale pielii, ne-am saturat sa vedem oameni imbracati in uniforma, ne-am saturat ca ceea ce face Romania sa nu fie apreciat de proprii ei locuitori. De aceea, am ales sa oferim o alternativa si sa aratam ca designerii nostri merita atentie si apreciere si ca pot oferi calitate si unicitate la preturi rezonabile. Din pacate, de foarte multe ori strainii sunt primii care ne apreciaza tara, dovada si numeroasele documentare despre bogatia turistica a Romaniei si numai. In orice alt tara civilizata, se depun eforturi mari pentru ca traditiile si obiceiurile sa nu fie uitate de generatia tanara. Un exemplu ar fi Austria. M-au fascinat batraneii imbracati in costumele lor traditionale, pe bicicleta, mergand foarte relaxati la supermarket. Austria este printre putinele tari, daca nu si singura, in care portul traditional este recunoscut ca fiind o tinuta oficiala, pe care o poti purta atat la dineuri, petreceri sau baluri, cat si pe strada. Personal trec printr-o perioada in care ma simt tot mai atasata de tot ceea ce inseamna traditie si spiritualitate romaneasca. Imi manifest pasiunea pentru tot ceea ce inseamna traditional, si in moda, incercand sa imbin spre exemplu iile cu boyfriend jeans si tenisi converse sau cu pantaloni de piele sau ugg-uri si alte accesorii. O sa va arat cateva outfit-uri in zilele ce urmeaza. Acum vroiam sa va vorbesc despre un eveniment ce a avut loc zilele trecute: lansarea colectiei couture 100%.RO, intitulata ”PREJUDECATI”, semnata de designerul francez Philippe Guilet si realizata cu sprijinul a zeci de mestesugari si designeri romani, folosind ca sursa de inspiratie patrimoniul cultural romanesc. Colectia Haute Couture 100%.RO contine 25 de tinute, iar designerul Philippe Guilet are o experienta bogata in Haute Couture si in domeniul artistic. In sectorul modei a colaborat cu nume mari, printre care Karl Lagerfeld, Jean Paul Gaultier, Thierry Mugler, Donna Karan. A realizat costume pentru Opera din Paris. Din 2007, Philippe Guilet este directorul artistic al Ambasadei Frantei in Romania, creand in aceasta calitate Festivalul si evenimentele de Moda "Pasarela" care se desfasoara in fiecare an in Bucuresti. O sa las pozele sa vorbeasca de la sine despre colectie, pentru ca eu nu am putut sa am decat o simpla reactie: OMG!!!
In my last posts I have told you about what we are doing at Pinkat, but I didn’t told you why. The most important is that we are young and we are tired of buying products made in China or Turkey or any other country than Romania. We are tired of products with bad quality, of people wearing uniforms, of people who don’t give a damn on Romanian products. That’s why we have chosen to give an alternative and to show that Romanian designers deserve our appreciation and that they can give quality and unique products at very good prices. Unfortunately, in many circumstances, foreigners are the ones who appreciate our country and that you can see in many documentaries about our touristic places. In any other civilized country, everyone is participating and they are making lots of efforts to preserve their traditions so they can’t be forgotten by young people. An example it would be Austria. I was fascinated by old people wearing their traditional costumes, when riding a bike on their way to the supermarket. As far as I’ve read in a touristic guide, Austria is among the fewest countries where traditional costumes are recognized as official outfits and you can wear them at balls, parties or dinner and also on the street. Speaking for myself, I am now passing through a period when I feel very much attached to everything that Romanian tradition and spirituality means. My passion is being manifested also in fashion, by trying to wear our traditional blouses called “ii” with boyfriend jeans and converse sneakers or with leather pants or UGG-s and other fashion accessories. I will show you some of my outfits on the following days. Anyway, a few days ago a collection was launched. Its name is “PREJUDECATI” (Preconception), signed by the designer Philippe Guilet. The collection was realized with the support from scores of artisans and Romanian designers, by using as inspirational sources our Romanian cultural heritage. The collection has 25 outfits, and the designer has a large experience in Haute Couture and in artistic domain as he worked with Karl Lagerfeld, Jean Paul Gaultier, Thierry Mugler, Donna Karan. From 2007 he is the artistic director of French Embassy in Romania and he is also creating fashion events such as the one called "Pasarela" from Bucharest. I am going to leave the pictures to speak about the collection, because all i could say when i rist saw it as OMG!!!

P.S: Probabil o sa va intrebati de ce am ales sa vorbesc despre aceasta colectie, in loc de marea lansare a colectiei Versace pentru H&M la Bucuresti. Am ales sa fac asta nu pentru ca nu as aprecia piesele din colectia celor de la H&M sau munca echipei de acolo, ci pentru ca traiesc cu speranta ca intr-o zi cozile pe care le-am vazut la H&M vor fi la ale produselor romanesti si oamenii se vor trezi la 5 dimineata pentru a sta la o coada sa cumpere o Ingrid Vlasov, sa citeasca un Dan Puric/Emil Cioran/Octavian Paler sau sa asculte o Angela Ghiorgiu sau sa vada un Brancusi.
