What are your inspirations?
My inspirations come from my roots in Mongolia, its rich history, vast steppes, and the changing colors through the seasons, feeding me endless creativity.
In Paris, I also find an infinite source of inspiration.
-
What do you love most about your job?
It is very exciting and rewarding. I love going to factories and fabric markets, touching different materials (I love searching for fabrics). Styling is also a part I immensely enjoy. It's like mixing clothes as a DJ mixes on their turntable, expressing themselves through sounds.
-
What are your future creative projects?
I'm working on my second collection, with the presentation planned for May/June 2024. And I have other very interesting projects underway.

Your most beautiful trip?
The trip to Senegal in Africa was one of the most memorable. It's a continent I had not yet known. The life, tradition, and colors are unforgettable.
-
What's the nicest souvenir you've brought back with you?
When I travel, I love going to fabric markets, the black market, the artisan market.
I brought back a beautiful vintage African bag from Cap Skirring.
-
A habit you have when you visit a new place?
Visiting museums and exhibitions, and I try to bring back honey from every country I visit. The different tastes and colors of each honey are fascinating. Having them in the kitchen is already a delight to look at and to taste.
