Minimalism? Don't think so...
- I've been a bit obsessed with Mongolia, the dress, the art, and the features of the Mongolian women. While looking at images of the beauty of Mongolia, I came across other native women's wear as well as Haute couture that seemed to feed off of these looks.
- From Mongolia I went on to Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan. Both countries are part of the former Soviet Republic however they have a great Far East influence.
- Fashion from places like Bahrain, Mongolia and Guatemala. I can't help but see a common thread, pun intended...
- The colors and decorations adorning these women, all mesmerizing.

- After admiring the celebration of clothing from these wonderful corners of the earth, I'm afraid minimalism just doesn't do it for me!
