2006 – Revital has been designing clothes since she was 14 years old and kept on doing it ever since. She had a boutique called Maison Close in Antwerp where she created her label Revital AvidaR. For the project ‘La Vie en Tulipe’ in the Nationalestraat, Van der Hilst and avidaR worked together on a unique collection of hand-painted garments and a shop-window display.
