Nothing pleases a journalist and a writer more than a beautiful and unique story! Azerbaijani Socks, founded by Teresa Hamlin is one of them.

Teresa is helping Azerbaijani women in the rural areas by promoting their craft of knitting ‘Jorab,’ which are wool knitted socks.

This is a traditional Azerbaijani craft and Teresa has been inspired by the idea of selling them in America, and giving back the profit to the women who knit them.

She added her own touch to the creation process by providing the knitters with more vibrant colors, ideas and better quality materials.

Please read our Six question interview with Azerbaijani Socks and be inspired by how women can support other women!

1) What is the idea behind your brand? 

To create the perfect piece to take from the beach/ to daytime/ or night. The swimwear are thus more then just a piece for the beach, it blends in perfectly in your wardrode and works from day to night; as a fashion detail under your crispy shirt or as a body for a night out.

2) Is there something or someone who inspires your designs?

In love with the 50th riviera luxury. And all the vibrant women I meet when travelling around the world. Its true inspiration.

3) Do you have certain criteria you stick to during the process of creation?

Yes, we only work with very soft and comfy materials and design wise we like mixing <mini and maxi>. For example we like balancing our signature pleats with a simple edge.

4) What is the moto of Morning of March?

Time is the new luxury.

5) How would you describe the Swiss, Swedish fashion? 

Swiss fashion is breathing luxury and top quality while Sweden have a lot of creativity and emerging designers combining contemporary with the Scandi minimalism touch. The both combined is a good match.

6) Is Morning of March eco-friendly and animal-friendly?

Its important for us to only use locally sourced fabrics and services to minimize the eco-footprints. But also the design process we always keep a timeless mindset and high quality in focus which makes the products long-lasting. This is something important and unique in todays fast-changing fashion environment.

7) What is the next step for MORNING OF MARCH?

With an international growing market in mind we will narrow the focus to more multi-purpose one-pieces to bring from the beach into the night. Time is luxury and the more we travel the smarter packing we need.

8) What kind of a woman do you see shopping for MORNING OF MARCH?

Our typical woman is busy between carrier, friends or family. She’s having a beautifully open international mindset and is happy to pay a little extra for luxury in her everyday life. Age is just a number!

9) What can we expect from your next collection?

Delicious shades of sheer fabrics straight out of a lavish garden-party.

10) Which country would potentially be an inspiration for your brand?

As I’m spending a lot of time at the French Riviera, this place is constantly inspiring me.
