“People are always shocked when they are confronted with things they haven’t seen before”.

Why the interest in fashion and especially fetish?
“Fashion is passion. Ever since I could decide by myself what I wanted to wear, I have been interested in fashion.
It underlines my personality,I gravitate to fetish, I simply love it.
With fetish I can act out different facets of myself, for example extremely enhance feminine proportions (tight corsets, extreme high heels).
It’s an extravagant style, vigorous, mystical,futuristic and over all – never boring.
And it stimulates, if you are open for it.”
Besides being a designer you’re
also an artist. Can you tell us more about your projects?
“I am a fetish model and work with styling, make up, photography and digital image editing.
Furthermore I design t-shirts with fetish motives, gallery prints, cards, figurines, playsetand amazing fetish shirts.”
How did you start your career?
“My career started 5 years ago. I am a very creative person and worked as a stylist for a long time.
Then I wanted to start something new. Currently I am specialized in designing and producing latex masks – together with my partner and artist Gernot.

Shock them a bit maybe?
“I want to show my creativity, my dreams and my visions to the world. And I want to encourage people to try new things.
To shock them?

People are always shocked when they are confronted with things they don’t know.”

Where do you find inspiration for your designs?

“My inspiration comes from my dreams, yearnings and desires. My ideas are exteme and extraordinary.
Conceptions flow through my head, develop, grow and become fixed ideas which I bring to life.
These inspirations come from deep inside, life for me is an inspiration.
I don’t orientate too much on current fetish aesthetics,trends and stereotypes.
I develop my own style and bring it to perfection.Creating new and spectacular things is a real challenge and such a great fun!”
Sex for me is …
“… lust and vice.”
“People are always shocked when they are confronted with things they haven’t seen before”.
Any dream project you would like to do?
“My dream is to have my own performance with choreography, styling, make up and off course my own creations.
A futuristic movie or a music video clip would be great as well.
Which personality would you like to see in your clothes?
“Every person who dares to wear something different. People with style, who are curious for life in all it’s facets.”
What are your future goals?
“There are so many ideas that are waiting to come to life! Designing new masks, latex fashion, photo shootings, and much more.Let me surprise you!”
Who would you like to work with in the future? Any special collaboration?
“There are so many excellent artists I would love to work with, for instance Eugenio Recuence or Ellen von Unwerth.”
Last “hardcore” moment for me was…
“The last party! …”
