In one of her interviews, the talented designer Agnieszka Osipa said that she has been interested in painting since she was a teenager. Besides, she studied in the Higher School of Art. On the advice of one of her teachers, she began studying fashion. In the Academy of Fine Arts alongside with painting, she was doing fashion designs. While working on her Diploma Collection, she has already known what direction to move. And that was fashion.
