Biography

I’m a Polish stylist and consultant based in Tokyo, blending a background in
Japanese Studies (Warsaw University) and Fashion Design (Bunka Fashion College).

My editorial work has appeared in Cap74024, CARNALE, GATA, MAPS Korea, REVS,
ODDA, Schön!, and SWITCH, and I regularly contribute to both international and
Japanese publications.

With a deep passion for art and underground culture, I aim to channel those influences
into my work. I’m equally engaged in collaborations with emerging designers, luxury brands,
and commercial clients—bringing a European perspective to Japanese projects,
and offering grounded insight into Japan’s creative landscape for international clients.

My approach centers on storytelling, craftsmanship, and emotional connection.
I’m especially drawn to projects that prioritize quality over trend, authenticity over performance, and humanity over hype. I look for collaborators who care not only about aesthetics, but about intention, process, and impact.

Recent clients include: 9-jour., AMBUSH, BALMUNG, DRESSEDUNDRESSED, IHNN, Mode No Higeki, Nike, Numero Tokyo, Tokyo Weekender, Warsaw Sneaker Store, and more.
