Eco collection 'Black Sea'

This is my Eco jewelry collection 'Black Sea'. The style of the collection is very extravagant, eclectic and also very innovative and creative. Most people don`t believe that a masterpiece can be created out of trash but everything depends on the view and the imagination. I wanted to push people`s thinking and understanding of fashion and created this collection with recycled materials. Using a special method and technique I created the black plastic pieces out of recycled plastic water bottles. I also used golden chains and Zirconium Diamonds.

My name is Zara. I am 23years old, originally from Bulgaria and currently living in the United States. I`m a young fashion designer and artist. I am making clothes, accessories and jewelries. Recently I got my Parsons and Teen Vogue Certificate for Fashion Industry Essentials and now I`m taking Fashion Design Master Class with Marc Jacobs.
I believe that people should always be curious about the new and always be learning. That`s why I am going to start in the Fall in University of Cincinnati- DAAP for my Bachelor Degree in Fashion Design.
