hello Andrea,

it's heartening to see this tiny Asia group growing - and acquiring a fashion expert such as you, with a passion for traditional skills.
at this point i don't think i can contribute much to your quest in any practical way, and i have my own huge challenges to deal with in the field out here in Thailand.
at least i do hope to have a company registered in this country soon (it will have taken nearly two years)...
but perhaps we have some thoughts to exchange?

Hi Andrea, you should contact Margaret Galabe CEO of World Women Trade Fair based in LA (you can google it) They provide equipment, training and marketting advice for womens co-operatives in InAsia and Africa

Hi Andrea!

That's some awesome work u did with Henry V111! I also love the bridal and evening wear lines and pieces from 'Romance and Reality'.
I have been associated with more of contemporary styling and costumes. I haven't had any experience with elaborate epic sagas, though it has been a long standing dream of mine. Im currently busy with my admissions at London College of Fashion. I'll be doing my Masters in 'Design Management for Fashion Industries' this fall. My research will be in Ethical Fashion and Sustainable Business practices. Your 'power of hands' project sounds like a very interesting idea, and i would definitely like to know more about it.
It would be a pleasure to talk to you about your work, and how we can collaborate.
