About

As a fashion designer, I bring a blend of technical expertise, creative vision and an artistic background. With a BA in Fashion Design and Womenswear from Istituto Marangoni London, I have a deep understanding of garment construction, trend forecasting and sustainable design, and my skills in Adobe software and CLO3D let me create both commercial collections and innovative showpieces. As Creative Director and Social Media Manager of the streetwear start-up Tactical Wolves, I led design teams, built social media strategies and drove brand engagement, while learning the business side of fashion. Today I create custom designs for individual clients, work as a personal and photoshoot stylist, guide aspiring designers, and consult for contemporary labels on identity, collections, market and consumer insights, and visual storytelling.
