founder / designer / creative director
ar*ky*ved is my evolving record of ideas, observations, and personal memory — translated into clothing & accessories. The brand is guided by instinct and hands-on experimentation, dressing the ‘sexy tomboy’ through an offbeat mix of influences: femininity vs. sport, sensuality vs. practicality, polish vs. play.

A hands-on ethos carries into every detail of the brand; handwritten notes, photocopying and scanning, polaroids, postcards, personalized packaging and labeling – the physical runs through everything, giving people something tangible to carry with them, highlighting the intimacy and significance of physical media in an increasingly digital yet disconnected world.
Each finished garment takes on its own identity; pieces are named and treated as individual case studies on color, material, function and technique. As the catalogue expands, designs begin to speak to one another, forming small capsules united by shared ideas — allowing the archive to grow organically over time.
