My Wanderland is an avant-garde fully fashioned knitwear couture collection that redefines traditional textile design by transforming knitwear into sculptural, wearable art. Drawing on a deep fascination with the mystery of unseen entities and the body's hidden, organic forms, this collection is a bold, personal exploration of fantasy and the unknown. Each bespoke garment is meticulously hand-crafted using advanced single-bed knitting machine techniques, where technical precision meets spontaneous creative expression. A carefully curated palette of natural wool, silk, soft mohair, and shimmering metallic yarns is used to create an intricate interplay of color, texture, and movement that elevates each piece into a work of art.

Embodying the essence of haute couture, My Wanderland celebrates exclusive craftsmanship and innovative design, pushing the boundaries of what knitwear can be. Simultaneously, it stands as a testament to textile innovation through its experimental use of machine-knitting technology and the fusion of traditional techniques with modern aesthetics. This collection invites both viewers and wearers into a surreal, tactile journey—a personal wonderland where fashion transcends convention and becomes an immersive narrative of discovery and transformation.
