About me
I'm Julia: A Designer Passionate About Turning Ideas into Reality.
With over 5 years of experience in fashion and accessories, I have honed my design skills in both areas throughout this journey.
In Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, I spent over 2 years creating amazing pieces for jewelry brands like VOA Joias and Lisht. My fashion journey has spanned over 3 years, from designing women's wear for Dress To to creating children's clothing and accessories for Reserva Mini at AR&CO, Latin America's leading fashion group.
Currently, I am expanding my design horizons even further, pursuing a Master's degree in Design at Széchenyi István University of Győr in Hungary. While there, I am putting my skills to work, designing innovative technical wear, backpacks, and accessories for Boolanga Business.
