After her fashion studies in Milan and various professional experiences, she moved to Paris to chase bigger dreams. She worked with various fashion brands to gain more practical experience and decided to create her own fashion brand, just like she had always dreamt of, since the beginning of her self-actualization journey. She overcame challenges and created beautiful memories, as a young entrepreneur who was trying to build a brand during a global pandemic.

As a young woman who was living far away from her hometown, Eskisehir, since she was seventeen - a very critical age of self-exploration - she never stayed put since then. A “chaotic way of living” became the main element of her life. Different people, different cultures, different worlds.

FROM CANSU'S OWN WORDS
x
“Getting out of my comfort zone so early forced me to explore myself in many ways and consider what kind of a human being I want to become.
x
The inspiration behind this brand is my entire life journey, the people I met along the way, the places I visited, the cultures that mesmerized me in countless ways. I wanted to share this journey, and show that imperfection is the key to reach real beauty."
x
I invite you to explore my story, be a part of it and create your own stories within.”
