A sister who studies the necessity of undetermined play and a sister whose business is attention to detail. A paramour who constantly dreams, but sleeps only on rare occasions. A friend who is a writer of unfinished stories and an acquaintance who prides in soft hand-shakes. Old man, who doesn’t give up on dancing nor colors, and a gentleman who doesn’t own more than he can carry. Diverse in their genders, ages, and shapes, each having their unique way of moving. Peculiar, sometimes even chaotic. Spontaneous and playful, but nevertheless critical, such are the people for whom I want to design garments. With them, I engage in conversation that reveals their personal habits, gestures, and cultures.

If you could keep only one outfit from all your clothes, what would it look like?
What do you always carry in your pockets?
How do you dance?

I listen to their stories and simultaneously design garments based on them. This way, I intend to stay in touch with the necessities of my customers.

Seamlessly, I strive to design a modular wardrobe, made of the most durable, possibly weird, raw materials and preferably from dead stock. If you decide to order any of the garments, you may choose from one of the three standard sizes, S, M, or L. But, for an additional cost, you may have any of them made to measure. And because most of my designs are made-to-order, please allow up to 2 weeks for their production.

I follow an independent release schedule, not bound by the standard aw/ss cycle. To get informed about my latest design releases, each inspired by a conversation with a unique and inspiring person, consider subscribing to my newsletter.
