BIO
I am an Art and Creative Director based in London, specialising in image direction within the fashion industry. Throughout my career, I have pursued opportunities to expand my knowledge and technical skills in various artistic practices, including 3D rendering, animation, and custom typography for print.
My journey began as a graphic designer, and during my time at Wonderland magazine, I naturally evolved into the role of Art Director. In this position, I led campaigns, brand advertorial projects, and editorials while managing a team of creatives to bring my ideas to life. Along the way, I established strong relationships with photographers, stylists, videographers, and highly influential individuals deeply rooted in today's culture.
Moving forward from publication and going in-house I took on the challenge of elevating the creative output of Axel Arigato as it expands into move of a premium market. With my artistic direction, the brand has gained recognition and respect within the industry picking up collaborations with Mulberry, breaking through into the United States, as well as considerable increased engagement on social media platforms pushing the brand over the 1 million mark.
Departing from Axel Arigato, I had taken the position of Senior Art Director at Communion Studio, where I lead the creative team and manage the Zegna account under the Creative Director. I have been a driving force in shaping Zegna’s brand positioning in Italy as a leading luxury brand, successfully executing five global campaigns that reinforce its identity and market presence.
My contributions have made a significant impact on the organisations I have worked with. At Wonderland, I ushered in a new era of art direction, graphic design, and photographic contributions while introducing more sustainable production processes for paper and printing. With Axel Arigato, I have laid a blueprint foundation for the brand to continue its growth in image making and brand strategy. As a fashion creative, I aspire to represent the next generation of individuals who will influence and shape culture.
