Vintage is the new luxury
Created after relocating to the Netherlands, this collection emerged from a period of adaptation, experimentation and rediscovery. The project explores how existing materials can be transformed into something new. Vintage curtains, discarded garments and forgotten textiles became the starting point for a collection that combines craftsmanship, contemporary design and personal expression.
Vintage and reclaimed textiles sourced through second-hand markets and local resale platforms, including curtains, garments and deadstock fabrics. Each material brings its own history, texture and character, making every piece unique.
Contemporary silhouettes inspired by everyday use, including shopper bags, hobo bags and oversized carry-all styles. Quilting techniques add structure, texture and visual depth while maximizing the creative potential of reclaimed materials.
The collection gives a second life to overlooked textiles, transforming them into functional accessories with a distinct identity. By combining craftsmanship, circular design principles and contemporary aesthetics, the project creates new value from materials that might otherwise have been discarded.
