This had a fundamental influence on her work as a painter and fashion designer. By the age of 16 she became a pupil of the well known avant-garde artist Janos Fajo. Her favourite and most admired artist is the native Hungarian painter and photographer Laszlo Moholy- Nagy. Her graduation collection was based on Moholyâs levitating shapes and his life-long experimentations on transparency: by using overlapping see-through fabrics such as organza and chiffon, Horvath was able to âmixâ colours. The shapes and propositions of the collection were inspired by Art Deco fashion designers such as Marti, Anon and Atalier Bachwitz. The collection is made up of matchable pieces; some of them have vivid colours which can be toned down by wearing them with pastel or black pieces
