My name is Sientje and I am a graduated fashion designer, at the beginning of my professional career.
My identity and work are best represented in contrasts. Poetic and analytical, thoughtful and experimental, orderly and creative, artisanal and commercial, a light energy and a worrier. Those different elements in me are sometimes at odds, this can trigger an inner tension. The way I deal with this and what this brings about is a reflection of my identity and the expression of my personal projects.

My sources of inspiration include Ronald van der Kemp, who strives for a more sustainable world in which recycling and the mentality of saving for a garment that will last a long time is central. Furthermore, I long for the same abstraction and yet playfulness of artist Miro. His images are placed in a new context, like words in a poem. Finally, my inexhaustible source of inspiration are flowers, through the contrasts that I also see in myself. Feminine and robust, powerful and vulnerable, exploited and outliers, developmentally rhythmic and unexpected, in and out.

In the future I strive for a gathering of my creative ideas in a place full of passion, ambition and creativity, where you can educate yourself, be inspired, enthuse yourself, find what you are looking for and relax.
In my products and services, I want to give more insight into the production process and everything that comes with it, in order to provide a more transparent and realistic and honest picture to its consumer. With my enthusiasm and passion, I connect people to me and I form a community of consumers, interested parties, creatives and those eager to learn.
