About me
What interests me most in life is its sense of reality. When I listen carefully to the stories around me, I find the most amazing inspiration. Everyone is wonderful and unique, I like to journey through their stories. As a fashion designer, reducing gender is what I have been pursuing through my collections. This is not only a simple way for men to wear skirts or give women an oversized wide shoulder jacket but also enables them to have more experiences to touch and feel more fabrics and textures and to express themselves through silhouettes, to show their emotions through layers. This is who I am as a Designer, a designer who gives her audience a choice. What richens my work is the experience that I have been given by life every day. Every morning I am a new me, I can’t wait to see what I create today.

There is no more meaningful place to display the development than in my own home. Every day as I walk down this hallway, the row of lights overhead gives me a sense of reassurance and hope. They are not so dazzling, just the right brightness. I know that no matter how dark the abyss I am in, there will always be a row of lights o
  • The Balcony
    The BalconyThis photo gallery is the answer to collections: "Can You See Me Now?". This collection is the beginning of me as a fashion designer, where I find out who I am. There is no more meaningful place to display the development than in my own home. The most perfect place always just under your roof. Only in this unfortunate time can you discover what life has brought you. To truly see and appreciate what you have always had. In my case, The Balcony that has been with me for years. It's like wha
