I came to Norway under the Au Pair cultural exchange program, in 2015. - A Norwegian couple saw my potential and helped me to study fashion. I studied fashion design, pattern-making and sewing at the ESMOD Oslo, I finished my studies and training after three years, and since then, I have worked full-time in this field. I have been in Norway for eight years now. When I create my design, I always think of a strong independent woman, who loves and lives fearlessly in equal measure. RW: What is your creative style, use of materials? MYET: Draping is the best technique that suits me because it allows me to create something without seeing any different inspirations from other designers. During fashion shows, I use mostly abaca and pineapple fabrics. Please tell us the Fashion Shows you have participated in, so far. Paris Fashion Show, 2021; Diplomatic Reception, Oslo 2022; World Fashion Expo 2023 Oslo; Phil Fashion Show 2023, Cebu Philippines. Your current projects, future plans? Patternmaking, proto-type, and production for different brands. I hope to continue what I have started and hope it will grow more and more. Do you have a message to fellow Euro-Pinoys? Never stop grabbing your goals until you reach it and work hard for it. Contact Details: MYETH S.
