Bouguessa

Born and raised in France to Algerian parents, Faiza Bouguessa was introduced to the world of fashion very early. Faiza’s first encounter with garment making took place during her young years while spending time with her grandmother who was a seamstress herself, and who taught her the basics of knitting and sewing. What started as a hobby soon turned into a passion which led her to take numerous internships in tailor shops while studying English literature in university. Through these internships she learned the basics of pattern making and developed an understanding for fabric characteristics.
