BAG / RAINCOAT
Alexander Gerginov creates a souvenir for everyday, which can be used either as a bag or as a raincoat. His idea is to give a contemporary interpretation of the traditional format of the souvenir and make it attractive and useful for the younger audience.
He gets the inspiration for his work from the motives and colours of the Bulgarian embroidery. As a highlight in his accessory he uses the most common geometric form – the one of the rhomb. The cut is a replica of the characteristic Bulgarian shirt.
