His great intuition, passion and personal belief has built about 95% careers of the actual designers that started either as his students or assistants.
Talking about fashion after the war in Kosovo was the craziest thing to do, even though it was his ambition and persistence to change the mindset, to talk about creativity and a beautiful living.
