However, having a business model and a presentation initiated by the Association of Belgrade Fashion Collective did somehow help. “The five of us [designers] had passed several qualification rounds and in the end, with the support of the English members of the jury, we reached a goal that initially seemed far away [at] London FashionWeek,” she added. Along with Ana Ljubinkovic, Ivana Pilja, George Styler and Vlada Savic, Budislava forms five of Belgrade’s hottest names of the moment. Her designs which con- sists of a small series of monochromatic clothing, accessories and leather shoes can be found on her website and at the ‘No Brothers No Sisters’ design store founded by Tijana Pavlov. All of Budisla- va’s designs are handmade and sourced locally from the best materials. www.budislava.com Keković
