by Fashion.bg, 27 November, 2009
Marina was born and raised in Sofia, Bulgaria. Her love of art and design began at an early age and was encouraged by her mother who was a professor of textile and fashion design. Before entering the Master Degree program at Academy of Art University, Marina studied textile design at the School of Applied Arts and received a BFA and MFA degree from the National Academy of Arts in Sofia, Bulgaria.
Suzy Menkes of the International Herald Tribune and New York Times wrote, “Standouts included the jacquard knitwear in vivid colors from the Bulgarian-born Marina Nikolaeva Popska.”
"I would love to create my own fashion house," exclaims Marina. "However, as a first step towards realizing my dreams, I am planning to work for an established company to gain more experience in the fashion world."
