A Journey Through Unconventional Fashion

A Journey Through Uncon-ventional Fashion
Early Beginnings & Craftsmanship

Before completing high school, I began my career early—working with a family-owned business specializing in shoes and genuine leather goods. This hands-on experience shaped my understanding of craftsmanship, materials, and timeless design. Some of my early footwear designs, including shoes and boots, can be found below.

Cobra and Black Lambskin Men's Work Cowboy Boots.
Black Belly Crocodile Men's Pointed Toe Lace-Up Oxford Shoes.
Reddish Brown Lambskin Men's Short Boots with Pointed Toe, Slight Slant Heel, and Elastic Closure.
Olive Green Nubuck Men's Biker Ankle Boots with Elastic Closure and Fixed Ankle Buckles.
Tangerine Monitor Lizard Skin Men's Exotic Cowboy Boots.
Python Skin Men's Shoes with Pointed Toe and Vamp Aligned with the Instep.
Patched Multi-Snake Skin Men's Square Toe Lace-Up Oxford Shoes.
Coral Ostrich Skin Men's Square Toe Lace-Up Oxford Shoes.
I designed and made this strapless gown years ago (the image has been revised for portfolio purposes). Made from chiffon, the dress features added ruffle volume at the center to enhance its sensuality and elegance. Pearls and crystals elevate the gown to a "haute couture" aesthetic.

  • Reviving the Past: A Collage Reconstruction

    This collage is a reconstruction of old dresses I created, reimagining them in a modern form through layered composition.

Expanding Beyond Tradition

I took an unconventional path, venturing beyond traditional design education. Collaborating as a co-fashion designer with couturiers in Bangkok, Thailand, I contributed to hotel uniforms, cocktail dresses, and couture gowns—despite not having formal training in fashion design. Here, I developed a sharp intuition for structure, textiles, and elegance.

From Sketch to AI-Integrated Design

This collage illustrates the journey from an initial sketch to an AI-integrated composition, showcasing how artificial intelligence enhances the design process—refining details, textures, and realism to bridge the gap between concept and execution.

This fashion sketch features voluminous shoulders embellished with jewels, beads, and pearls. Pearls have become one of my favorite elements, frequently used in my sculptural artwork. The dress is envisioned with chiffon to enhance its ethereal aesthetic. The antler headpiece, along with tentacles, adds to the look’s elusive, otherworldly quality.

This fashion sketch features sculptural, root-like tentacles that extend along the body. The addition of chiffon, beads, and crystals enhances the dress with an ethereal aesthetic.
This fashion photomontage utilized generative prompts but required hours to layer the objects. As mentioned, antlers and pearls are some of my favorite elements in my artwork. This illustration resembles the previous sketch. The addition of light steel integrated with soft fabrics like chiffon and satin reflects current fashion trends. Gold, one of my favorite colors, is frequently used in my work.
Reimagining the Masters in Contemporary Fashion

This work breathes new life into iconic collages, visualizing how figures like Mona Lisa and other classical subjects might dress in today’s world. By merging historical artistry with modern fashion aesthetics, it explores the evolution of style across centuries—bridging the past with the present in a striking visual narrative.

"No Mads Released - Joséphine-Éléonore-Marie-Pauline"

This photomontage reconceptualizes Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres's "Joséphine-Éléonore-Marie-Pauline de Galard de Brassac de Béarn (1825–1860), Princesse de Broglie" with a contemporary look, incorporating bohemian style and Rococo aesthetics, and featuring a seamless floral background.

Innovating with Sustainability & Storytelling

Recently, I’ve focused on fashion accessories, including backpacks and totes crafted from discarded materials and found objects. By blending trash with haute couture aesthetics, I challenge perceptions of waste and elevate sustainability into luxury.

Here’s a refined version of your description: The zipper is added for easy access, and the straps are highly durable, capable of supporting over 40 kg (88 lbs).
This backpack is crafted from unwanted mail packages and structured in a collage-like manner reminiscent of Dadaism. Its design not only addresses the issue of overconsumption but also highlights the urgent concern of ocean pollution.
This backpack is crafted from discarded snack packages and found objects, adorned with sequins, pearls, crystals, and other materials to create a "haute couture" aesthetic. Its design aims to address issues of trash pollution and overconsumption, not by reimagining unwanted materials but by incorporating elements that draw attention to environmental concerns.
This backpack is not only durable and capable of carrying up to 50 kg (110 lbs), but it can also serve as a sculptural piece and be displayed as a contemporary object.
This purse is crafted from absorbent packaging wadding and plastic, reconceptualizing and transforming discarded materials into functional items while demonstrating a concern for trash pollution.
This purse is crafted from discarded materials and shaped like a 3D Dadaist sculpture. It is both functional and durable.
The lining and straps of this tote are reinforced with thick cotton canvas to enhance the bag’s durability.
This heavy-duty tote is made from packaging materials and other found unwanted objects, forming a pattern reminiscent of a Dadaist collage. The tote is capable of carrying more than 50 kg (110 lbs).
This bag is made from discarded insulated cooler packaging, allowing it to keep perishable goods fresh.
This handbag is not only durable and functional, capable of carrying up to 20 kg (44 lbs), but its pattern, reminiscent of a Dadaist collage, also adds a unique touch of artistry to the bag.
War & Rebirth: A Reimagined Narrative

Once worn by the Grenztruppen der DDR (Border Troops of the German Democratic Republic) during the Cold War, this coat carried the weight of surveillance and control. Through upcycling, it has been transformed—adorned with jingle bells, artificial flowers, plastic bottles, and plastic straps, each element disrupting its former identity. The rigid military garment now challenges perceptions of history, sustainability, and reinvention, turning a relic of division into a bold artistic statement.

The "Sonitus Strepitus" features ornate embellishments on the shoulders, arranged in a dramatic diagonal perspective to enhance visual impact. The interplay of gold, red, and white hues highlights the military green, adding a distinctive and sophisticated elegance to the ensemble.
Personal Design Philosophy

At the core of my work is an obsession with hyper-detail, intricate layering, and bold storytelling—each piece woven with intention. Here, you’ll find a collection of my old sketches, newly refined illustrations, and latest fashion and accessory concepts—designs I plan to transform into a dramatic, operatic fashion collection soon.
