I’m Sherrmae Andrea Soliman, a fashion designer and product developer with five years of experience in the fashion industry.
I like the moment where the creative side and the technical side meet: choosing the right material, getting the silhouette and the fit right, and making something that’s good to wear and well made. I enjoy taking an idea all the way, from the first concept and research to development, fit and the finished piece.
I’m creative, a bit experimental, and I care a lot about details. I like trying out materials and working on a concept until the piece feels right.
