A BIT ABOUT

MY MOTIVATION:

I believe my creativity is best expressed through clothing.

LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO THE

LINE

Let it be your guide through this fashion work presentation.

FELIDAE

One of my latest projects was directing a photoshoot for Felidae London, a "premium London fashion brand honed to comfort and quality" (Felidae, 2025), which connects wearers through creativity.

WECANFLY

Inspired by their sister Daisy, a person with a disability, Jake-Baker Cliff founded WeCanFly - a brand dedicated to empowering humanity and challening societal perceptions of disabilities.

TILTED EAST

Executed the creative direction, photography and styling for South African brand Tilted East, for a positive impact. The brand allows people to communicate their feelings through design, their expression of mental health experiences. After creating the brand "people were given the ability to identify and relate with others on a deeper and more meaningful level - our experiences with this showed us just how healing being properly understood for the first time can be" (Tilted East, 2024).

TALES OF A TIME

For the 2024 Line Fashion show, which took place in Leamington Spa, I took on the role of Designer and designed a high-fashion piece based on the theme of Cinderella's "Fairy Godmother."

My design process is presented below.

ECHOES OF THE UNIVERSE: GLACIAL

The LINE 2025 Fashion Show theme was "Echoes of the Universe", based on different realms of our planet, such as deserts, oceans, jungles. I designed once more.

See my process below.

And so, the "Berry Mini Dress" design was born.

QUALITY OVER QUANTITY

Creative direction for a stop-motion short film presenting my design. Embroidery by hand.

"QUALITY OVER QUANTITY"

Directed and produced the project "Quality Over Quantity," showcasing a photograph of another one of my fashion designs - embroidered by hand.

ZIIMARA

ZIIMARA London is an eco-friendly brand that produces bags made from repurposed materials. I creatively directed the campaign, styled the models and was in charge of photography.

ECHOES OF THE UNIVERSE: SAND STORM

For the "Echoes of the Universe" LINE Fashion Show, I chose to challenge myself as a designer and create my second design sustainably, Sand Storm. In the process pictures below, the whole upcycling process is presented, from material collection to end result.
