Rare Italian leather and natural silks.
How do you handle creative block?
I usually take a break and do something unrelated.
How do you balance creativity with wearability in your designs?
By focusing on the client and their needs. Having that boundary clear allows me to ground even the most experimental designs.
How important is collaboration in fashion design?
It’s everything. Fashion, like film, is a team sport.
