Hope for a more sustainable future in fashion in Kosovo!
Ever since she was a little girl, Hana Zeqa dreamt of becoming a world-famous designer. And not just any kind of designer. She wanted to fashion clothes and save the Planet at the same time. Organic and natural fibers such as cotton, linen, hemp, bamboo etc. which are gentle toward the Planet and are more environmentally friendly. During the process of selection of textiles, a designer should always be mindful of the durability and find a balance between what the garment requires and what the planet demands.
