TEHRAN – Iranian costume designer Mitra Tamjidi has recently made a set of clothes for EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton.
Ashton has said that she likes the clothing and will be wearing it in one of her diplomatic meetings, Tamjidi told the Persian service of ISNA on Saturday.
“I picked the designs and motifs used on the costumes worn by Iranian peoples in older times, and combined them with modern motifs and designs of today,” she explained.
Tamjidi said that Ashton’s secretary has also asked her for a set of clothes for herself.
Tamjidi has so far designed costumes for several official figures and TV presenters over the past years.
