DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN THREE WORDS?
SEARCH FOR BALANCE.
WHAT IS FASHION TO YOU?
FASHION IS A WAY OF COMMUNICATION. A NONVERBAL FORM OF COMMUNICATION THROUGH WHICH WE EXPRESS OUR INNER WORLD, AFFECTIONS, AND OUR VALUES.
WHAT JAGYCH BRAND IS ABOUT?
AS A BRAND, OUR MISSION IS TO REDEFINE ELEGANCE BY PLACING IT IN A NEW CONTEXT — ONE THAT TRANSCENDS CONVENTIONS AND INTRODUCES AN ALTERNATIVE TO WHAT ELEGANCE HAS ALWAYS BEEN.
WHAT IS THE PHILOSOPHY OF YOUR DESIGN?
THE POWER OF SIMPLICITY.
DESCRIBE THE AESTHETIC OF YOUR DESIGN?
BRUTAL REFINEMENT. A JUXTAPOSITION OF TWO SIDES: ONE NURTURES RULES AND PROPORTION, THE OTHER BREAKS AND CHALLENGES THEM.
YOUR MUSE/INSPIRATION IN DESIGN?
ARCHITECTURE.
COLOR THEME AND OFTEN THE ABSENCE OF IT?
I FOCUS ON FABRICS, TEXTURE CONTRASTS, AND DETAILS. IF I WERE TO ADD MORE COLORS, THE RESULT WOULD LOOSE IT’S POWER.
FAVORITE COLLECTION?
I SEE COLLECTIONS AS CHAPTERS OF A LONGER STORY TOLD BY THE BRAND. IF I WERE TO SINGLE ONE OUT, THE WHOLE FANTASY WOULD COLLAPSE.
FIRST JOB IN FASHION?
FASHION ADVISOR AND SALES ASSOCIATE FOR AN INTERNATIONAL FASHION BRAND.
WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE IN?
IN THE POWER OF KNOWLEDGE.
WHAT IS LIFE TO YOU?
ONE STORY ABOUT EVERYTHING. ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING.
MUSIC YOU LISTEN TO?
I LIKE TO LISTEN ANYTHING OF QUALITY. BUT ELECTRONIC MUSIC AND CLASSICAL MUSIC INSPIRE ME THE MOST.
FAVORITE DESIGNER/BRAND?
I HAVE STOPPED PAYING ATTENTION TO BRANDS WHERE DESIGNERS CHANGE SEASONALLY. I’M INTERESTED ONLY IN DESIGNERS WHO RUN THEIR BRANDS. I REALLY LOVE TO SEE THE THOUGHTS AND CREATIVE PROCESS OF RICK OWENS, THE ROW, AND HELIOT EMIL.
