passion for Chinoiserie (French/orientalist) themes, antique decadence, and a strong desire to create individual beauty fuelled Sasha’s initial forays into fashion design 7 years ago. Her garments are also influenced by a love of travel and carry the exotic fingerprint of Asian, Indian, and middle-eastern inspiration.
Her signature look selects vintage-style garments, fabrics and cuts, to celebrate the feminine form. Remodelled vintage lingerie is a specialty and appeals to those who seek an individualistic fashion interpretation, as many designs are one-only or limited edition runs. The inhouse ‘Harem’ label eschews commercialism, instead offering an ever evolving, whimsical collection of designs which celebrates the rich history of the past, yet is also firmly relevant for stylish contemporary living.
Sasha's aim with her fashion label and the 'Harem Melbourne' store, is to cultivate a sense of nostalgic romance, creating garments that enhance the magic, art and ritual of dressing to express feminine individuality.
