Miria Stavrou
After graduating I will do an MA in Creative Pattern Cutting, enabling me to develop my technical skills. I am planning to return back to Cyprus and open my own showroom. My USP is the combination of traditional Cypriot culture and modern silhouettes. I have taken inspiration from ‘‘Lefkaritika’’ the traditional handmade lace of Cyprus, and “vraka”, the Cypriot man’s trouser. During the last three years I developed my skills using CAD programmes, manufacture and pattern cutting, and creating a complete detailed tech pack. Due to the pandemic, we haven't managed to complete our collections for a degree show which was devastating, but I have been able to adapt well to the changing environment.
