In the following images, you can appreciate the garments and accessories I have developed from start to finish for the Berlin label Namilia. These creations range from gloves, hats, and bags to intricate gowns and corset pieces. Notably, the collection includes best-selling items such as the Vulva Spike Bag. Each piece exemplifies the unique style and innovative design that Namilia is renowned for.
KHY X NAMILIa
Almost exactly one year since Khy’s original launch with Namilia, the two brands reunite for a highly-anticipated second collaboration that expands on the same contemporary edginess and high-quality craftsmanship you loved the first time around.

I was responsible for the entire patternmaking and digitalization process for this shoe. I designed and developed the initial pattern and oversaw the creation of the first sample, which was then sent to the factory for production. This involved ensuring every detail was captured accurately to bring the concept to life
Metallic Chainmail Dress for Namilia – Custom Design by me
Designed and sewn by me for Namilia, this chainmail dress blends industrial edge with fluid draping. I used lightweight metallic mesh and thick chain straps to create a structured yet wearable piece, showcasing my ability to work with unconventional materials like chainmail.
AW24 SHOW "PFOTEN WEG!"
Fashion is fantasy, a space where queer expression can thrive. Simultaneously, however, dressing up can expose us to an onslaught of negative attention and verbal or even physical aggression, particularly on the streets and public transportation. For many women and queer people, we question whether we look too sexy, too gay, too flamboyant, whether we're taking up too much space.
For AW24, Namilia investigates the effects of these acts of aggression against queer and femme bodies. The collection, named "Pfoten Weg!", plays with dressing up while also trying to hide. Drawing inspiration from mediaeval armour, hunting gear, and white trash glamour, "Pfoten Weg!" reveals this distinctive pursuit of living out our fantasies while staying safe.
BELOW YOU CAN FIND THE DIFFERENT PIECES I HAVE WORKED ON FOR NAMILIA INCLUDING PATTERN DEVELOPMENT AND CREATION, GARMENT DESIGN AND TAILORING.
