Romania. Horizontal stripes are like hugs. A ring, a wedding ring or a bracelet are hugs placed on the body. Likewise - our stripes surround your thoughts in a hug and tie them in a bow.
Striped ribbons come from Italy and that's where they learned to be cool. The hats are made of rye straw, hand-woven in the backyards, in our Transylvania, which smells like freshly mown grass. When we steam them in the workshop, all the fields there sprout in Bucharest and many threads, still alive, come out of the workshop window and flood the street on the corner with Plantelor.
