Textiles & Tradition

Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to travel to Uzbekistan as part of a textile-focused study abroad program. Now, I’m honored to share that a new feature about my experience has been published on Jefferson Aspire, the official platform of Thomas Jefferson University. In this article, I reflect on my impressions of Uzbekistan’s rich cultural heritage, vibrant textile traditions, and what this journey meant to me as a fashion design student. Below, you’ll find a link to the full story, along with a few additional photos and thoughts from the trip.
