bez_dushna For the past two weeks, I’ve lived inside the world of the legendary Polish artist Krystyna Wojtyna-Drouet. I was invited to participate in a project @fachlab @fundacjakraina where I had to create a collection inspired by her exhibition. It was a challenge to capture the depth, the texture, and the raw emotion of her tapestries and translate them into a modern silhouette. 15 years of sewing led me to this moment — seeing my pieces walk the runway right in the heart of the museum. 🏛️🧵 This project reminded me that fashion isn’t just about clothes; it’s about storytelling. Huge thank you to @fundacjakraina @sulej.kubik @maymare @ten_typ_w_czapce @galeria_zacheta for this opportunity🤍 Video from @desa_unicum
bez_dushna Finally, this Spanish fabric got its turn :) Yes, I don’t just sew for my shop @yb_handmade_store — I also sew for my friend!
bez_dushna Working with faux leather is a love-hate relationship, but the result? Pure fire. 🔥 I’ve been sewing for 15 years, and pieces like this still make me feel like a rockstar. Custom made, perfectly fitted, mine. 📍Fabric from @textilworld.pl 📍Sweater from @yb_handmade_store (I made it too! And you can buy it😜)
bez_dushna The Reveal: From a $6 Vinted find to a high-fashion cropped jacket. ✂️🔥 Part 2 of the transformation. I wanted to keep the soul of this vintage wool coat but give it a sharp, modern edge. This is why I love upcycling — you don’t need a huge budget to look like you’re wearing a runway piece. You just need a vision (and maybe some courage to cut a perfectly good coat). What do you think? Did I nail the transformation? 👇 #upcycling #vintedtransformation #designerlife #warsawfashion #slowfashionstyle
bez_dushna Men’s vintage coat from Vinted vs. My 15 years of design experience. Round 1: Deconstruction. ✂️ I found this 100% wool piece for pennies, but the fit was all wrong. Today, I’m stripping it down to the soul. No more boring ‚dad coat’ vibes — we are going for a sharp, modern silhouette. Watching a high-quality garment get a second life is my favorite therapy. ♻️ Stay tuned for Part 2 to see the final look. You won’t believe it’s the same coat. ✨
