After receiving her diplomas in Paris she undertook 6 months practice at Nina Ricci, one week at Dior and a week at Lanvin. About her fashion design vision: Dora Konsanszky offers a comprehensive concept for the intelligent, autonomous woman. You will feel that a unique way of design has come into contact with real life. Her works reflect the duality of modern femininity and structure as influenced by the three-dimensional English and French tailoring she studied in Paris; it also utilises her Hungarian education which focused on the culture of design.
