A Girl's Diary

Daisy Budianta is a 21-year-old graduate fashion designer and illustrator originally from Indonesia, currently based in London. Drawing has been a constant in her life since childhood, forming the foundation of her creative expression and shaping her distinctive visual language. Driven by a passion for storytelling through fashion, she often channels a delicate, decorative vision into every piece she creates, often exploring themes of identity, memory, and emotion. Her signature style features romantic silhouettes, whimsical details, and rich, decorative embellishments. Daisy's dedication to craftsmanship is evident in her use of labour-intensive techniques, including free-hand embroidery, silicone mould-making, and hand-finished trims. Her work carries a sentimental quality, with every detail thoughtfully developed to tell a story.
