EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with Busra Osen Mesudiyeli
Busra Osen Mesudiyeli, studied fashion design in Central St.Martin's School of Art and Design, and in LaSelle International Academy. She opened her own atelier 'Busra Osen' in Izmir, a couture house that also custom makes casual wear. In 2011, she created 'Easy Couture' a chic bohemian inspired pret-a-porter line. Her pieces are very easy to wear, but equally chic with a distinctive 70s look. What attracted me most to Busra, was her personal style. This petite Rapunzel posses the kind of style that anyone would kill to have, literally!
This is my EXCLUSIVE with Busra:
F:When did you know that fashion is your passion?
B:I could not remember exactly when, I guess I was
about 4-5 years of age when it became a passion of mine :)
F:You have AMAZING style! You should be a stylist! Describe
your personal style.
B:I have my own atelier in Izmir, Turkey. I had a fashion
education at school, after that I started to make custom-made costumes and
limited ready to wear collections under a line called EASY COUTURE for
particular boutiques in Turkey. My style is a little bit consufing, it's
mainly about feel good. I like 'effortless' looks... I also love modern lines, I like
bohemian and hippie styles, & surely I adore couture. About my own style, I always wear
flared jeans at the day time with good-shaped tops and leather jackets, with high-heels and cool sunnies!:)
F:What inspires you?
B:I'm not the type of person that gets influenced easily, but cities, islands
and architecture can inspire me.
F:5 years from now, what do you want your line to be known
for?
B:I'd like to be known as a TREND-SETTER :)) I would also love that my line become a very exclusive one...
F:What do you do to maintain your figure, and what do you do
to have such healthy and glossy hair, Tell us your secret!

nothing to it, I even don't cut it regularly as well... I don't
have any particular products that I use :))
