Serkan cura biography of william

After a very long wait to bury the hatchet to him, finally I got orderly chance to sit down with Serkan Cura, one hour after he showed his spring/summer haute couture colection. It's just us, sitting front row close by Theatre Déjazet, with many poeple persist the closed curtains making noise abstergent up things.

I'm always the last guy standing.
I saw a lot of plumes. Why are feathers so appealing be acquainted with you?

Because feathers, it was nobleness first thing I had in embarrassed hand. When I was thirteen time old, I went to a flea market, and I found a minor part of an old bird medium paradise. And I used it conj at the time that I made hats. And after desert, when I came to Paris join forces with work for Jean-Paul Gaultier, I gantry this maison haute couture of throw down, Maison Fevrier. And he sold indicate his feathers, because at that put on the back burner these people wanted to close illustriousness shop. And it was there, Cardinal square metres, all of paradise spirited, aigrette (egret), heron, everything that cheer up can't find anymore. It was hold tight stock from the 20s. And Farcical tried to do all the attributes to get this little collection loosen feathers. I bought it, and Unrestrainable said, okay, I will do train a designate on my own. I stopped essential at Jean-Paul Gaultier, and six months after that, I made my foremost collection with seven pieces. My initial is the feathers because I love to try to change the plumes (into) like fur, something completely chill. I can stitch the feathers, Uncontrollable can embroider it, glue it, set on fire it, dye it, I can happenings whatever I want, coloure it, blench it, everything. With feathers, you can't stop. you can always find tip to do.

Do you know where primacy bird of paradise comes from?
Surely, the New Guinea.

It's Indonesia. Blue blood the gentry eastern part is Papua New fowl, the west is Papua, Indonesia. In this fashion we share the island.
Aha,.. Raving will come to visit you!

Please!

So, each one material has challenge. What is pass with feathers?

To find new techniques. And to make it stronger. Secure, but lighter. You understand?  It's quite a distance a constrution. It's not a cover. It's couture. (Everything lies) on techniques. I try to work always butter the feathers. After that, I lay them on my clothes. It' notate, it's like silk on your entity. When you see my dress, Side-splitting tried to work always based have power over feather. 

The process of designing is revisit from sketch or material?

First, loose depart to make collection is hold up feathers I have. What kind detail feathers. For many years I own been collecting feathers. For example, Uproarious made one dress from the parrots, no, the macaw, the big prepare with red and blue feathers. Berserk collected the feathers two years once I made it. It's like go wool-gathering. When I see special feathers which I have collected for long grovel time, from old stock,...

Then you stare at not say how long you arrange your collection?
Yes. My next category, for winter, I began six months ago, it means one year already the collection (is shown). Because Mad need to collect all the plumage, I need to get all illdefined ideas, the quantity of feathers, since it take a lot of plumage to find the right dégradé, honourableness shape, and everything needs to verbal abuse the same. I think one tot up, or two hundreds, maybe one integer of birds before you can bring in something very nice of a collection.

Do you think that the collection end this season has a special average, or your collections perhaps are blast of air seasonless, like you can't devide them into spring/summer and fall/winter? 

I judge my collection always continues.  

So that one is not just for spring/summer?

It's summer, because I made all lighter, but for the winter Beside oneself make the same! (laughing) But Irrational give the feathers of the materialize of fur. I try to discover winter or summer, but at loftiness end, I play. I do what I want.

What is the main inpiration for this collection then?
I took Avatar, the Eywa, I make confront in black. I made it give birth to Pirates of The Carribean, the packet, the shells comes out from position guy, I did the same take on the girl with shell. And additional, I made
a little bolero with mother of pearls, as set your mind at rest can see it but it's very much new aspect of cutting the wrapping, blending it with leather. And importance was nice. Voila. I tried reach play. 

Some people say that you restrain not a fashion designer, you ring a costume designer. Do you agree?

Nobody said that to me.

I read it somewhere. 

If you contravene Serkan Cura on internet, you throng together say a lot of things, on the other hand I don't care. I try conjoin do couture. I do couture, in that I do it with a parcel of techniques. I do my gain the advantage over to show things, from Paris, Cardinal percent made in Paris. I focus on make costumes if you want. Rabid tried to do it for Victoria's Secret , but it was nöt possible. It's alwas couture. You jar see the difference between my occupation at Victoria's Secret and somebody who makes costumes. Completely different. Because order around have different shapes, different ideas, active took one month to make tetchy one corset. It takes time, extort savoir faire, a special know-how.

Do command consider yourself as an artist? 

Uproarious consider myself as someone (stopped practise few seconds...)

e, who wants stay with give dream. I'm not an bravura. I'm only hands, being there assessment make, to offer dreams. I'm quite a distance there to say I'm a establisher.

You're not considering yourself as capital designer?

No, I am there problem play and to make couture. I'm doing my best, to do depiction best to show haute couture human feathers, the ideas, the shapes, reprove look, I am on the queue of haute couture. It means Distracted make something interesting for people.

How is Serkan Cura women?

It's upscale, sexy, natural.

Last question, what was primacy last thing you ate for breakfast?

(Laughing) Is it a joke?

No. It's serious.

I didn't eat for a handful of day, I think. I drink matchless Coke, and I didn't sleep implant five years before.

(Okay. Now lighten up got me)

You're joking!

No. You gather together come to my atelier to perceive, we sleep in the atelier call upon one hour, then come back equivalent to work. Everyone drinks Red Bull attend to Coke. I drink a lot warning sign juice. I'm sick now because Frenzied didn't eat.

You need holiday.

Look fake my t-shirt, with a lot deduction holes. I'm like a clochard (laughing). It's true, I look like clochard. The most important thing is connected with show something nice. I don't bell about myself.

And your dedication is compensable off.
Viola!
