Studying Fashion is

Studying fashion offers a comprehensive understanding of the art and science of clothing, from its historical roots to its impact on society and the environment.

Fashion is not merely about garments—it is a cultural narrative, a mirror of identity, and a timeless dialogue between creativity and society. Fashion goes round in circles, yet each return brings with it new layers of meaning, reinterpretation, and innovation.

My own journey began in Athens and later unfolded in Milan, where I studied fashion and jewelry design at the prestigious Marangoni Institute. This experience provided me with both a rigorous foundation in haute couture craftsmanship and a vision of fashion as an evolving art form. Fashion, for me, was never just about fabric or ornament—it was about weaving together heritage, innovation, and storytelling.

Over time, my practice expanded into painting, poetry, and curatorial writing. Yet fashion remained at the core of my artistic DNA, informing my understanding of structure, detail, and aesthetic harmony. Just as a gown requires balance between silhouette and texture, my artworks demand the same dialogue between form and emotion.

In today’s world, fashion continues to reinvent itself. Sustainability, diversity, and technology reshape its boundaries, ensuring its relevance in both artistic and social contexts. For me, fashion is a language—one that communicates elegance, resilience, and transformation. It is a cycle of rebirth that, much like art itself, connects the past to the present while gesturing toward the future.

Fashion goes round in circles…

This is me.

My Art is a Study

I read. I learn. I am attentive to details. I observe.

I always remember what is important.

For me, art is not simply creation—it is an ongoing study of the human condition, a dialogue between inner reflection and outer expression. Studying art enriches one’s understanding of humanity and the diversity of voices that shape our cultural heritage.

Each brushstroke, each collage, each poetic line becomes part of this study. It is a way of seeing the world more deeply, of noticing the overlooked, and of transforming fleeting impressions into lasting stories.

Art is my world, my greatest teacher, and my constant companion. It teaches me resilience, patience, and the beauty of detail.

This is me.
