A beautiful and exciting event held recently was aptly named ‘Collection of new hopes’. This was a fashion show in which the talented work of designer, Mino Komroni was displayed. IRODA partnered with Mino Komroni for this event in which her designs were modelled by young adults with disabilities.
Mino Komroni is a young fashion designer who began her brand at the age of 18. She has a love for clothing and design and sees it as an important form of self-expression. Every piece included in the ‘Collection of new hopes’ told the story of the model, many of whom have experienced challenges and indifference within society. Designed individually for each model the colours, cuts, and styles were chosen to express aspects of their life, interests, personality, and dreams.
This event was not only a beautiful expression of diversity but a means through which to continue to advocate for the inclusion of people with disabilities within all aspects of life in Tajikistan. Thank you for your ongoing partnership that allows us to continue working to not only directly support children and young adults with disabilities, but to also change the society they are growing up in. Your partnership with IRODA goes a long way towards seeing ‘new hope’ for children and young people in Tajikistan.
