UPCYCLING FASHION DESIGNER

PHOTO/VIDEOGRAPHER

ALLROUND CREATIVE

I’m a Fashion Design graduate with a passion for creating genderfluid, upcycled streetwear that embraces rawness, imperfection, and expressive style. Working exclusively with discarded materials, WITH MY LABEL DFC I transform waste into something meaningful.

I've always loved the freedom and self-expression fashion offers, but I can't ignore the industry’s impact on the world. This tension shapes my work as I focus on upcycling, authenticity and creative freedom, trying to push the boundaries of what streetwear can be.

By blending fashion, film, and photography, I aim to tell honest stories that celebrate imperfection, challenge norms, and reimagine fashion for a better future.
