About me

Creativity has always been a source of joy and fulfilment for me. After experimenting with design and painting, I launched CALI—a project that brings both passions together.


My fashion journey began with studies in Ankara, followed by training at La Maison De Couture in Brussels. I also honed my skills with a fashion drawing course at Esmod Istanbul.
Having lived in various countries—including Türkiye, the UK, Spain, and now Belgium—I love blending different cultural influences into my designs, creating pieces that are both unique and vibrant.


Inspired by Oscar Wilde’s book "Philosophy of Dress", my approach highlights the deep connection between clothing and emotions. Color is the common thread that unites my garments and paintings—its ability to tell a story, create movement, and transform is central to my work.
Beyond trends, I focus on craftsmanship and sustainability, creating garments that are timeless and personal. My designs use natural fabrics and feature simple cuts with artistic touches, such as hand-painted details, collage, marbling, and patchwork.


As Wilde once said, “Illusion is the first of all pleasures.” My goal is to see that illusion reflected in your smile when you wear my designs.
