'Maria Laura Wandavi's aesthetic sensibility finds expression in her lyrical and striking creations with motifs drawn from the richness of the Middle East while the Italian fashion element is always strongly visible. Her father - a renowned artist - and her immersion as a child in the old-world elegance of Padovan culture engenders a hybrid fashion sensibility allowing her entry into an exciting generation of 'globalized designers'. The 'tactile' play is an important part in her work. It's just as important to have Maria Laura's sensual wraps around ones body as the visual components reflect her philosophy of comfort and 'wearablility' as well as formal elegance. To have one of Maria Laura's pieces is to celebrate this new-found aesthetic making a conscious effort to go against the tide of mass production and cloned banality.' Patricia Black - Poet of Cloth
