PORTFOLIO 
 

Fashion, to me, is an intricate dance of creativity, where each step—from the initial spark of inspiration to the final flourish of a garment—holds a story waiting to be told. I find joy in every aspect of the design process, whether it’s conceptualizing the overarching theme or meticulously selecting textiles, trims, and shapes. Each stitch, each detail is always special, an expression of who I am and what I wish to convey through my work.
 
Inspiration is an omnipresent muse in my life, often drawn from the simplest of moments. A mundane object, a fleeting scene, or an overlooked corner of a city can ignite a spark within me. 
Travelling feeds my creative spirit, as the diverse cultures, landscapes, and stories I encounter serve as a wellspring of ideas. Whether I’m wandering through bustling markets, losing myself in the pages of a captivating book, or absorbing the energy of a crowded museum, I am constantly reminded of the limitless possibilities that fashion can offer. Each experience adds another layer to my understanding of design, enriching my perspective and fueling my creativity.

I am particularly drawn to the juxtaposition of bold silhouettes and delicate textures, a beautiful contradiction that embodies both strength and femininity. I find myself fascinated by designs that encapsulate a sense of brutal masculinity wrapped in gentle femininity—a harmony that speaks volumes and invites curiosity.
​
Fashion for me is not just about clothing; it is an art form that challenges conventions, tells stories, and captures emotions. It is a canvas where I can freely express the complexities of life, and as I continue to explore this vibrant world, I am excited to see where my imagination will lead me next. In every stitch and every seam, I hope to create something that resonates, something that leaves an indelible mark on the tapestry of fashion.
