It all started with my passion for Fashion.
Since childhood, fashion has always been central to my life. From drafting fashion drawings, styling original outfits using my mother’s wardrobe, creating clothes using old jeans and tee-shirts, I always hoped to play a role in that industry.
At 9 years old, I started attending sewing classes and, from that moment, I embarked on a fascinating journey where I discovered how upcycling fashion could satisfy my passion for creativity while at the same time really make a difference and help our planet.
I created unique outfits and learned the fundamentals of Fashion Design, from defining a creative intention with mood boards all the way to crafting a unique silhouette. I also learned about the negative impacts of the fast fashion industry and realized that young girls my age consume fast fashion products more than any other demographic group.
I decided to take action and to start educating my peers about the dangers of the fast fashion industry and how they can make a difference by changing their habits, promoting upcycled clothing and sustainable designers.
