A shared Moustache


Its all about how clothing makes you feel, and having fun. Two illustrators, Aya Kakeda and Nina Frenkel, who have a passion for Hungarian art and culture both wanted to enter a Moustache Contest sponsored by the Hungarian Cultural Center in New York. After brainstorming through many hand made moustache ideas, they decided they wanted to make theirs large enough to be worn by two people, and so began 'The Moustache Sisters'.
