- Why did you find the fashion motives of the 20s close to you? - I asked the designer.

- I wanted to show femininity, because this is the most important thing for a woman. I wanted the collection to contain glamor, chic, shine …

- Do you create catchy, youth clothing or are you only interested in this direction of women's fashion?

- I have a second line, in which I work on clothes for a younger audience. But this collection, presented at Russian Fashion Week, was created with a view to different, including young, age. My clients are women from 20 to 50 years old, they are all different, but each of them likes to be elegant.

- Tamuna, tell us how you came into fashion?

- I studied in Paris, then did an internship at Nina Ricci and Libertin Louison. Then I started working on my own, a dream appeared - to create my own label, and for two years now I have had my own store in Tbilisi.

- At Russian Fashion Week, Georgian designers evoke a keen interest of the public: these are Avtandil Tskvitinidze and the Maka Assathiany fashion house. Which designers are close to you?

- I like Georgian designers very much, I am proud that they stand out, because Georgia is such a small country. And from Russian designers I really like Valentin Yudashkin, because this is a classic, Alena Akhmadullina and Igor Chapurin are also interesting.

- What, in your opinion, is the secret of a fashionable and beautiful woman?

- You just need not to lose individuality and be creative. And it is better to choose a wardrobe, focusing not on the latest fashionable novelties, but on your taste and mood.

After talking with the designer, I again found myself in the same cafe, from where the view of the same tastelessly dressed young lady opened up. But this time the audience looked at her condescendingly and almost affectionately: obviously, being impressed by the show, everyone unanimously imagined how good this girl would be in stylish clothes from Tamuna Ingorokva.
