The brand gained international recognition through exclusive dinner shows in cities including Los Angeles, Miami, Cannes, Berlin, Zurich, and Milan — where wearable artworks are created live on stage from recycled materials like tablecloths, plates, and glassware. Couture becomes sustainability. Fashion becomes spectacle.
Her bold, playful, and unapologetically original designs have been featured in Hollywood film productions. In 2025, she was honored as Best Designer in Los Angeles, the same year a Swiss TV production documented her journey from Switzerland to L.A. She also hosted a charity dinner show during Art Basel supporting the BD Foundation in Vietnam.
Her latest sunglasses collection merges design with purpose, with proceeds supporting rescue dogs — currently benefiting a sanctuary in Mallorca, where she volunteers personally. Through fashion, events, and philanthropy, she is building long-term impact, including ongoing support for the Animal Police in Mallorca.
Shaped by personal hardship, her philosophy is clear: life is short, authenticity is a responsibility. Her work embodies courage, individuality, and conscious living.
