about me
I am Gijs Bartholomeus, a curious and innovative fashion designer. The core of my work focuses on exploring gender identity and diversity. Since a young age, I’ve been drawn to breaking traditional boundaries and blending masculine and feminine energies.
My designs range from wearable garments to more abstract creations. I enjoy experimenting with shapes, materials, and colors—imagine silhouettes that reveal parts of the body, paired with contrasting materials like soft knits or sturdier fabrics such as canvas. I also like to design the surroundings for my work, placing it in the right context. Beyond textiles, I frequently incorporate photography and film to amplify my message.
Through my work, I aim to inspire people to embrace their true identity. My clothing highlights the confidence and beauty in the wearer, promoting a message of inclusivity and self-acceptance.
Collaborations and Opportunities
As a designer, I am always eager to connect with creative minds and explore exciting collaborations. Whether you're a stylist, photographer, artist, or organizer of exhibitions and events, I’d love to join forces and bring fresh ideas to life.
Let’s create something extraordinary together!
