I create conceptual clothing at the intersection of art, history, and contemporary design. Through silhouette, texture, print, and construction, I transform cultural research and human experiences into expressive visual imagery, maintaining a balance between the artistic concept and the quality of execution.

I am a fashion designer and production specialist who works at the intersection of cultural research, visual concept, and garment construction. I take a project from the initial idea and historical reference all the way through to the finished product—including pattern-making, textile and print design, and shoot production. My clients are independent fashion brands, creative teams, and cultural institutions that require one specialist capable of connecting the idea, the visual language, and the fabrication of the garment.

Context: The project explores the DNA of Ann Demeulemeester—melancholy, romanticism, and detachment—through the lens of Belgian artist Léon Spilliaert. The challenge was to translate these abstract themes into a wearable collection without losing the brand’s identity.

Approach: I studied the brand’s signature asymmetric cuts, fluid fabrics, and soft silhouettes, then reinterpreted them through Spilliaert’s visual language of solitude and reflection—treating loneliness not as emptiness, but as a ritual of self-reflection.

Solution: A seven-look capsule collection featuring deconstructed tailoring, layered sheer textiles, and prints inspired by Spilliaert’s ink washes.

Result: The project demonstrates my ability to work within an existing brand’s DNA while proposing a fresh visual narrative—directly applicable to B2B collaborations with independent labels.

Context: The project is a study of memory that remains after a person departs a space. The home ceases to be a physical location and transforms into a lost recollection—echoes of presence: shadows on walls, folds in fabric, frozen light.Approach: I treated clothing as a carrier of these traces, fixing through cut, texture, and color what can no longer be recovered but continues to exist within a person.

Solution: A collection built on tactile materials, muted tones, and prints derived from domestic imagery—chandeliers, chequered floors, dandelions—combined with soft, deconstructed silhouettes.

Result: This collection demonstrates my ability to construct a coherent visual narrative from an abstract concept—a skill relevant to cultural institutions and brands seeking emotional depth.

Context: How can a 19th-century sporting costume be reconstructed and reimagined within contemporary trends, preserving its historical logic while making it wearable today?

Approach: I researched historical illustrations and patterns of 19th-century sportswear (White Muslin Spencer, Zouave jackets), reconstructed the pattern blocks from archival sources, and selected materials that align with the historical palette—including fur, pleated muslin, and corsetry.

Solution: A reconstructed sporting ensemble featuring a pleated muslin bodice, a fur-trimmed spencer jacket, a full skirt, and a corset—crafted from historical patterns and adapted to a modern silhouette.

Result: The project demonstrates my ability to work with archival patterns and historical construction techniques—from pattern reconstruction to finished garment—a skill directly applicable to costume design for theatre, cinema, and cultural institutions.
