want to introduce my friend Elita Purnamasari Hardjadinata, a young & super talented girl.
I met her around 4 months ago in Istituto Italiano di Cultura Jakarta. It was a coincidence. And we had a chat.
She showed me her creation, her designs....Oh My God! She is super talented.
She is only 19!
She woke me up because she makes her dream come true. From that moment I try harder to get my dream come true by entering every competition haha....
Anyway...Those are her master pieces.....
I really love her passion and her energy.
Here is my conversation with her before she goes to Parigi to pursue her dream...
She graduated from SMAK Kolese Santo Yusup, Malang (majoring in science).
Her family background is different with her. Her family is all about business & engineering.
She said that since she was little she always did sketching... and her mother has pattern drafting & sewing skills (no wonder.....).
She took 1 year program in Esmod Jakarta and after that she applied to Ecole de la chambre syndicale de la couture parisienne. It actually 4 years program but the school let her to enter from the 2nd year so she will start school from 2nd year. Means she will spend her time study only 3 years.
Her style is classic romantic. It is showed from her designs.
She also said that Christian lacroix, Elie Saab, and Marchesa are her favorite designers.
And I asked about what is her future plan after graduated. She said that she wants to work for wellknown designers first to get experiences then she will develop her own brand.
Way to go Elita.
We will wait for your designs...
Buona Fortuna Elita....
