A touching combination of sincerity and naiveté, a friendly and cheerful mood in Cabiria, pushed the designer to express it through the outfits she creates. "What inspired me most was her positive attitude to life. She understands how important it is to be open and love the world around you. If you are that way, the world will pay you in the same coin," the designer says.

Indeed, the collection turned out to be very romantic. The dresses look quite plain, however, if you take a closer look, the true designer's talent will reveal itself to you. Poustovit paid the most attention to cuts and decoration – very specific as usual. Maxi dresses cut in the middle, as if it was a separate shirt and a skirt, wide coats, blouses and dresses decorated with ruffles and lace, narrow belts, massive fabric necklaces fancied with beads. Elements of cutting-edge fashion met vintage feel in rather moderate colors of greyish green, pinkish beige, navy blue, white, green and red.

The idea of openness found a special reflection in the collection: coats and dresses hardly above the knee leave some intriguing parts of the back or belly naked.

Another source of inspiration was found in the works by graphic artist Pavel Markov. In his "Roses" series he reflected his view of a mysterious city labyrinth thought an endless interweaving of rose bushes. "It reflects the idea of illusiveness of the past and the future and tells that the present is most essential,” Poustovit explained. In this collection you'll see the fragments of his works printed on the fabrics.
