KTZ shared with (UK) LondonFashionWeek “KTZ comes from Kokon To Zai, which loosely translates as ‘from here to then’. It’s the journey, be it style or fashion. It should be the transgression or movement of the wearer’s feelings and ideas… Not the other way round.” Marjan and Koji studied fashion design at Central Saint Martins while Sasa was studying architecture.

Bravo! Madonna looked fit, fabulous and fantastic! Not only did she grace the field with an unforgettable performance but she executed her very own high fashion runway show!
Madonna emerged looking youthful with an “a la Cleopatra” gold pleated Romanesque overskirt paired on top of black dress, black thigh-high, sky-scrapper boots and a gold custom Erickson Beamon headpiece. She performed cartwheels, walkovers, made gold pom-poms looks like the newest “It” accessory and her blonde waves looked flawless as she danced to the music, showing off her yoga-toned physique.

Fashion Designer
Claudia Patel’s modernist philosophy extends to fashion and beyond. She believes clothing should fit the way women live: with designs that are feminine, comfortable, contemporary and functional. Born in Singapore, Claudia’s love of her heritage continues to be a big influence on her as a designer and fashion adherent. She spent her early years in the United States traveling with her parents and studied abroad in Australia. Claudia’s diverse upbringing has always led her to believe that life takes unexpected turns driven by passion and purpose. She soon realized fashion was more than just a pastime, it was her calling. Claudia’s passion for clothing involves more than love for color and fabric.
“I’ve always wanted to find a way to bring the artistry of my culture and heritage to the modern canvas. So begins my journey to fuse subtle Asian aesthetics to contemporary design, dreaming up of a brand that has the sense and sensibility of classic items every modern woman should have in her wardrobe, but rich with texture and culture weaved into every piece.
For me, every piece is carefully put together to have you exude unapologetic confidence, with an alluring quiet sensuality as soon as you enter a room.”
