Hi, I’m Maria — a multilingual fashion stylist and creative director based in Zurich with a track record of building bold, high-impact visuals for luxury brands. I blend styling, storytelling, and production coordination to deliver on-brand campaigns across social and print. I thrive in collaborative, multi-disciplinary teams, tight deadlines, and international settings to help brands tell compelling fashion narratives. With experience in model casting, fashion styling, and content creation for top-tier brands, I elevate brand presence through cohesive visuals, strategic partnerships, and data-informed storytelling. When I’m not crafting visuals, I enjoy photography, travel, and exploring the ever-evolving world of luxury fashion.
