Marcia Ganem - Fall/Winter 2003

The cultural melting pot of Bahia in the tropical north of Brazil is home to Marcia Ganem - a designer who's unique style celebrates the rich, tribal culture of the region. Ganem uses raw materials to spectacular effect - be they precious stones sourced in Brazil or recycled car tires spun into delicate fibers. These one of a kind creations echo the spiritual soul of Brazil without becoming folkloric caricatures.
