For Autumn/Winter 2024-2025, I designed the whole knitwear for the Mini collections. I was the responsible for all the process from beginning to end: the selection of colors, qualities, inspiration, design and even receiving the samples to perform the fittings to give our adjustments to suppliers to review that everything was perfect.

On my free time during the COVID lockdown in 2020 and 2021, I started my own small accessories brand, focusing on XXL Scrunchies. I developed the brand through Instagram and Shopify and sewed all the products in my living room at home. You can explore more about this project at www.instagram.com/monmeribrand.

Collection inspired in the Mediterranean childhood.
This collection is a reinterpretation of the memories that a girl has living in a Mediterranean location. It's important to pay attention to the colours, the rustic fabrics and the simplicity of the garments.
This project starts with the job of inspiration, looking for trends and regardings. Follow with the design process to continue with the pattern maker activity and finish cutting fabrics to finally sew the garments.
