I was born in 1979 in East Berlin—a place where life was defined by limitations and scarcity. Growing up in the DDR, I learned early on that if you wanted something beautiful, you had to create it yourself. That hunger for beauty, nurtured in a world of simplicity, became the spark for my passion.
When the Berlin Wall fell, my destiny took an unexpected turn. The prospect of spending my entire life in a gray, confined world was replaced by the dream of living somewhere full of light and color. In 2003, I left behind the familiar and embarked on a journey to Italy—a Mediterranean paradise and a completely new life.
Armed with a sewing machine and a fierce determination, I set out to turn my passion for fashion into reality. I studied design in Berlin, learned every nuance of handmade craftsmanship, and began creating clothing that wasn’t just about fabric and thread, but about expressing strength, creativity, and beauty.
Today, I design and handcraft lingerie, pole dance wear, and activewear right here in Italy. Every piece I create is a celebration of my journey—from the modest beginnings in East Berlin to the vibrant, sunlit streets of my new home. It’s a story of resilience and transformation.
I invite you to join me on this adventure, to celebrate the art of handmade design, and to witness how every stitch weaves a tale of hope, passion, and creativity.
