About me
_____
About me _____
Fashion and Textile Designer passionate about craftsmanship, innovation, and storytelling. I blend traditional techniques with modern aesthetics to turn concepts into wearable experiences. I’m curious, creative, and precise—fashion, to me, is a language of culture, emotion, and bold ideas.
I graduated with honors from Fashion Design at IED Florence, specializing in sustainable design, patternmaking, and collection development. My training at Mita Academy as a Textile and Fashion Process Technician deepened my expertise in fabric innovation and production techniques. My creative journey began at Liceo Artistico di Porta Romana, where I integrated art, costume design, and sartorial craftsmanship, laying the foundation for a multidisciplinary approach that blends creativity with technical precision in fashion.
Inspiration

Inspiration _____
Fashion reveals identity. I design garments that tell stories and inspire futures.
My inspiration begins with a deep respect for heritage, materials, and craft. I’m drawn to artisanal techniques like weaving and tailoring, which carry centuries of cultural significance. Nature, history, and personal memory often guide my creative direction, grounding each collection in emotion and purpose.
I find beauty in contrasts—between past and present, structure and softness, precision and spontaneity. Whether it’s a vintage textile or a contemporary art movement, I explore how tactile experiences and visual storytelling can shape a garment into something meaningful, wearable, and emotionally resonant.
