Joanna Hawrot
Joanna Hawrot is a leading fashion designer in Poland. Based on the "FROM FASHION TO ART" concept, she elevates clothing to the level of art. Her designs are characterized by transcendence of the boundaries between the traditional and the modern. She calls upon Japanese aesthetics and structural forms while combining different textiles in revolutionary ways.
The resulting "wearable art" is created with a strong focus on detail and exquisite fabric design skills, and embodies both art and fashion trends. The resulting pieces retain their function as clothing while offering expressiveness that brings out the individual qualities of the wearer—this is a singular style which Hawrot has built.
Her works have been shown in Paris, Tokyo, New York and other major urban centers around the globe, and people everywhere view it as wearable art that embodies a design approach fusing the artist's unique vision with artisanal talent.
