Riina O in Rome

Last month Riina O was invited to teach at Accademia Koefia in Rome, Italy the soon-to-be graduates of the Fashion Design course.

The week-long intense workshop comprised of glove pattern adjustment, learning to make gloves through trial (and occasional error) and designing as well as making the pair of hand-stitched leather gloves of one´s choice. The most diligent students even managed to finish the pair by the end of the workshop! Some pretty colourful gloves were made, which might be included in the students´ graduate fashion show later this year.

Those were five days full of fun and jokes. Some of which got even translated from Italian for me to understand.

Go Puppies! :)

Decembery Rome had plenty of sunshine along with occasional frost bites.

I hope to be back again in this beautiful historic city!
