- Katriane is a womenswear designer with an extensive history of working in the apparel manufacturing industry. Driven by her passion for innovation, she embarked on her 3D journey in 2017 and have been working with Fashion houses across Asia, Europe, and USA to promote sustainable fashion 3D solutions. Her inspiration for design comes from a love for form & texture which translates into an aesthetic that uniquely accentuates and flatter the female silhouette. Fashion for Katriane is a means to experiment with elements of semiotics and intertextuality to generate a vocabulary where personality and identity can be freely outspoken.
