I've always been obsessed with historical dress and fantasy fashion. To me, clothing is never just something you wear - it’s identity, imagination, and storytelling, a belief so deep that part of my PhD explores the relationship between clothing and identity. I’ve always dreamed of dressing like the heroines of my favourite films and the protagonists of the Victorian novels I grew up reading, while also honouring my Iranian heritage. These worlds naturally merge in my work, where nineteenth-century silhouettes meet Persian influences, history blends with fantasy, and fact dissolves into fiction to create gowns that feel as though they’ve stepped straight out of a painting. I have no formal fashion training - almost everything I know is self-taught - but when I fall in love with something, I’m relentless in learning it. This brand began from a desire to share that sense of beauty and whimsy with others, because I believe beauty brings joy, and joy is meant to be shared.
