So here I am...
I was born
in Athens the capital of Greece Brazil and my
father at Piraeus
I have
studied Economics and Business Management. Disappointed by the nature of
finance sciences, which I mistakenly chose to follow, I started questioning myself
what was it that I really wanted to do and realised that it was the combination of my two
favourite activities I had as a child, painting and the creation of dolls
clothing …
So at the
same time with my studies in finances I started taking lessons in fashion
designing and jewellery creation as well as photography. My second passion
following fashion is music and so I often
borrow names for my clothes from song titles, band names and lyrics. At the
same time I occasionally play music as a d.j at several Athenian bars…
The design
of my clothes is characterized by originality, long-lastingness, range of
styles and the use of unique patterns. Particularly playful and appearing only
in limited numbers my creations offer a day-to-night approach with a vivid
sense of humour.
I despise
the “fake”, glamorous world of fashion and I prefer creating outfits for women who have a mind of their own
and an innate sense of style, who are not afraid to experiment and adopt
different roles through their clothes…www.venetiaioakim.com
