INTERVIEWS
5 minutes with Anna Dorothea
- Tell us a few words about your daily routine at work. In the morning I go to the atelier, where I work along with my tailors and pattern makers on new collections and designs, and later on I go to the boutique and I meet with clients who have arranged appointments.
- How did you decide you wanted to be a fashion designer? From a very young age I had already started to design my own clothing and have them tailor -made for myself. From the age of 15, I worked as an international model traveling to Shanghai, Milan, Athens and other fashion capitals and I believe that modelling was my entrance to the world of fashion and luxury. That’s when I decided I wanted to have my own fashion luxury brand.
- How easy was it to find a job after you graduated from university? Despite the offers I had to stay in Milan and work for several designers, I didn’t want to waste more time and ‘postpone’ my dream of owning my own brand. So, I registered my brand worldwide before my graduation as I knew the steps I wanted to follow. Creating my atelier and boutique in Cyprus and selling internationally was my dream. The decision was pretty easy for me.
