From memories of France, of gentle women in the countryside sewing blankets made of hundreds of beautiful floral fabrics… Thanh Huong nurtured her dream into reality, Flora Boutique –
It is known that Huong is currently a lecturer at Hanoi University of Architecture and Flora is also quite `famous`.
I am currently a Graphic Design lecturer at the University of Architecture, it is a profession but it brings a career – with Flora.
And under what circumstances was Flora born?
As a girl, having a small store has been my dream for a long time.
How did the field of study help Huong when `starting` her business with Flora?
I studied Multimedia Communications, so I also have a relative sense of art, which helps me a lot in mixing colors and shaping products.
I have been tinkering with sewing since I was young and also make handmade items and teach how to sew bags and wallets for disabled children.
Many of Flora Boutique’s products have vintage patterns, do you have a special love for these patterns?
That’s right!
Which of your products is your favorite?
Up to now, floral quilts are still a favorite item among young people and are the spirit of Flora.
Do you intend to develop further with Flora?
People often ask me why I don’t open more Flora, or rent a larger space, or advise me to produce more for export… but I personally like to maintain a small space like this, everyone
Thank you very much Thanh Huong.
