I was lucky enough to discover Aida's designs many years ago and was instantly hooked. She is a truly gifted artist who never ceases to amaze me with her absolutely fabulous creations. It's not just the stunning fabrics, buttons, and trims that she sources from around the world, but it's her eye for detail and special little touches that make her clothing truly extraordinary. Her jackets are like potato chips - you can't have just one. Every time I wear one of them (and I own many), whether it is to work, to a party, to a restaurant, or out on the town at a special event, I am approached by at least one person and asked where I got the jacket from.
On top of her immense talent, Aida is a ray of sunshine and an absolute delight to spend time with. She radiates good energy with her beaming smile and witty banter and is so warm and hospitable that it's truly a pleasure doing business with her. As an added bonus, her atelier - located in the magical Allied Arts Guild - is perfectly lovely and I highly recommend spending a leisurely afternoon there perusing her wares and then selecting the one - or ones - that you simply cannot live without.
