Manifesto

Filament, pattern and light. I design clothes that start as digital models and end as wearable structures, from Ljubljana to wherever the work takes me.

01 / About

Student of fashion and filament.

I'm Klara, a fashion & textile design student at the University of Ljubljana, Faculty of Natural Sciences and Engineering (NTF). My work sits where garment design meets fabrication: pieces that start as digital models and end as wearable, printed structures.

I work mostly in Slovenia and collaborate with photographers to bring the finished pieces to life on camera. The alternative scene is home. Everything you see here is designed and printed by me, and shot with the talented people I work with.

02 / What I make

The offering

Signature

3D-printed garments

Wearable structures printed piece by piece and assembled by hand. Sculptural, alternative, and impossible to produce with fabric alone.

Craft

Fashion design

Original silhouettes and constructed pieces, from first sketch to final fitting.

Toolset

AI-assisted design

Digital design tools and 3D modeling in the process, from concept to print file.

Reach

Commissions

Open to custom pieces and collaborations. Based in Ljubljana, I travel for work.

Base

Ljubljana, SI

Working across Slovenia, available for projects further afield.

Bioluminescence

A dress inspired by Björk and the bioluminescent deep sea. Designed by me with AI and 3D printing, made entirely from Filaflex 82A TPU on a home Creality Ender 3 Pro. Shades of blue, green, turquoise and transparent filament create a glowing, underwater look, with detachable 3D-printed buttons and flowers wired with LEDs. Otherworldly, yet deeply personal.

04 / How it's made

From filament to fitting

Step A

Sketch

Every piece starts on paper. Shape first, decoration never.

Step B

Print

Garment elements are modeled and 3D-printed, then assembled by hand.

Step C

Collaborate

I team up with photographers to put the finished piece in front of the lens — teamwork makes the look.

05 / Get in touch

Wear something that doesn't exist yet.
