Transformed couture: Designs mix luxury with emotion

Paris – A French designer is taking advantage of the prestigious fashion scene in her home country by using textiles recovered from its famous fashion houses.

Eva Zingoni ‘listens to what each fabric says’ and creates her own designs reflecting those emotions. The garments include elegant dresses in beige and electric blue as well as a more classic black number. Drawing on emotions instead of ‘gloss and shine, the garments are all made exclusively in French workshops to promote craftsmanship and to sustain outstanding local talent.
