Bulgaria native Marina Nikolaeva Popska presented her Spring 2010 Collection at Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week
Marina was born and raised in Sofia, Bulgaria. Her love of art and design began at an early age and was encouraged by her mother who was a professor of textile and fashion design.
Before entering the Master Degree program at Academy of Art University, Marina studied textile design at the School of Applied Arts and received a BFA and MFA degree from the National Academy of Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria.
For this collection, she was inspired by nature, humanity and the ‘chaos’ of color and texture. Marina’s knitwear is a combination of various knitting techniques and yarn arrangements resulting in rich textures and the illusion of depth in her garments.
MARINA: "Modelling is a kind of freedom!"
Like every girl that is going to be sixteen years old soon, Marina is smiling and playful, she makes jokes and retorts on jokes. Together with that she can easily change the subject of conversation - from Picasso and Rembrandt to Lev Tolstoi and "Anna Karenina" (her favourite novel and female character).
