Kapanlagi.com - Designer Yanti Adeni appeared in the National Creative Economy Movement (Gekrafs) Paris Fashion Show at Paris Fashion Week 2022 at The Westin Paris - Vendome, Sunday (6/3) local time. Born in Bangka Belitung, Indonesia, this designer showcased her 10 collections titled 'Coronation'.
"The 'Coronation' collection is inspired by Anna's line in the movie Frozen, 'It's Coronation day'. This collection consists of 10 looks. The overall look is very characteristic of Victorian style. Grand, feminine, layering, and big puffed sleeves," said Yanti in a conversation with journalists on Monday (7/3).
Yanti revealed that the clothing collection showcased in the Gekrafs Paris Fashion Show is mostly made from cual fabric (a typical woven fabric from Bangka Belitung) and Bangka Belitung batik. She said that she wanted to bring one of the distinctive features of Bangka Belitung to be known worldwide.
"The desire to bring Babel to the world led me to choose Cual fabric and Bangka Belitung batik as the main materials for this Paris Fashion Show 2022 collection. I also collaborated with SMEs from Bangka Belitung and obtained the approval of the Governor of Bangka Belitung's wife, Mrs. Melati Erzaldi," she explained.
