I work with textures, knits, stretchy fabrics and I love everything that is handmade but I also have CAD skills Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign that help me to have good technical drawings and technical packs. For me the comfort in fashion is an essential key in all my garments and that’s the reason that make me love stretch. In my final collection I explored the z generation, where I focused in trend garments from the 2000s and how would be my version of this fashion style. I started to state my neutral colours and developing a mixture of textures from the velvet to the knits that were produced by myself using different methods such as knitting by hand, working with knitting machines and mixing knitted garments. This collection has a sustainable side by working with deadstock fabrics and second hand yarns and garments, something that I want to go further in my own fashion brand.
