Monday 2nd

The last day in Bishkek. Today I meet Tatiana Vorotnikova one of the leading fashion designers in Kyrgyzstan. Her workshop is located in the Tumar Art Group Building and she combines their traditional methods of felt making with new and experimental techniques. I'm impressed by the combination of Uzbek spider silk and felt (as seen in the skirt)
