I just fell in love with these patterns.

So I thought that it would look really stunning to take something so Bedouin and so heritage, and make it so modern.

My name is Katya Kovtunovich. I live in Dubai, and I'm a fashion designer.

And working with Sadu is my big passion.
我非常热衷于做Sadu款式的衣服
Sadu was originally made by Bedouin women in the desert.
这种衣服原本是居住在沙漠里的贝都因女性制作的服饰。
They would weave them for weeks and months,
一件衣服她们就需要织好几周，甚至好几个月，
but there are still amazing artisans that make it by hand.
然而，现在还是有很了不起的手艺人会纯手工制作这种衣服。
So it's a very, very complicated art, and it's actually an art that is disappearing.
这种手艺极其复杂，事实上可以算作一种正在消失的艺术。
When you touch this fabric, you really feel it's so different; it has a soul.

I always just set myself free and I do whatever I want with fabric.

A lot of inspiration comes from traveling, from living in different countries,
我的很多灵感都来自旅行，来自我在不同国家的生活体验，
living in London, observing different cultures,
比如住在伦敦的体验，同时也来自我对不同文化的观察
and finding something that exists in one culture and translating it into another culture.
发现一种文化的东西，然后把它融入另一种文化。
The most interesting thing about this fabric is the stripes,
这种布料最有意思的地方就是它的这些条纹
that you can take the same color, the same fabric, and reconstruct it in so many ways.
即便是同样的颜色，同样的布料，都有各种各样的结合方式
One stripe can go horizontally, one stripe can go vertically, one stripe can go across,
这些条纹可以横着，可以竖着，还可以斜着。
so you create a very different movement on the body.
这样一来，衣服上就会呈现出不同的运动模式。
