Naumova's inspiration came from Gaudi's mosaic works and stained-glass windows. However, she wanted to create something new and unique, rather than simply copying his designs. The result is a collection that captures the essence of mosaic art, with vibrant prints that resemble kaleidoscopes.
What sets this collection apart is its meticulous design and use of natural silk fabric. Naumova carefully crafted each motif herself, ensuring that every piece in the collection is truly one-of-a-kind. The use of silk fabric adds a radiant quality to the prints, enhancing their resemblance to mosaic art.
Digital printing technology was employed to bring Naumova's designs to life. This technology is particularly advantageous for small quantities of fabric, making it more accessible for young designers like Naumova. The fabric used is 100% silk, known for its luxurious feel and eco-friendly properties.
The collection consists of two tippets measuring 90 x 190 cm and one headscarf measuring 90 x 90 cm. Each piece is designed to emphasize the individual style of its owner, making it a truly personal accessory.
Naumova's research for this collection went beyond Gaudi's works. She drew inspiration from medieval stained glass windows, Art Nouveau designs, and Egyptian ornaments. Her passion for experimenting with different motifs and patterns is evident in the collection, which showcases her original sketches brought to life through digital printing.
The Mosaic Fantasy collection was created in 2014 in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. Naumova's dedication to creating beautiful and unique pieces is evident in every aspect of the collection, from the carefully designed motifs to the choice of luxurious silk fabric.
This unique collection has garnered recognition in the design world, winning the Silver A' Design Award in 2016. This prestigious award is given to designs that demonstrate outstanding expertise, innovation, and artistic skill. Naumova's Mosaic Fantasy collection truly embodies these qualities, leaving viewers in awe and wonder.
