Designer
For the young designer, clothing design and creativity have been a passion since childhood. “I have always done crafts and drawn, and I made my first clothes for Barbie dolls. In elementary school, I started sewing clothes for myself and modifying flea market finds. After high school, the path first led to studies in the clothing industry as an artisan and then continued to a university of applied sciences, where I graduated as a designer, or clothing designer.”
“I want to offer people clothes to make everyday life easier without compromising on style and quality, but also to be present in life’s special situations. Dressing can bring courage and self-confidence to life’s tough situations, brighten up the day or be a way to express yourself. My collection offers style for work, leisure and parties. Domesticity and responsibility are important values of mine, which are also reflected in my collections.
“I started my own business in 2011 at a very young age, 17. What fascinates me about entrepreneurship is the freedom, responsibility, goal-setting and, above all, the opportunity to do creative work with your own style and values.”
