Marloes Mandaat

have always moved between fashion, design, and art direction.
Born in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, in 1979, I began my studies in Fashion and Costume, later deepening my skills in Graphic Design at Mediacollege Amsterdam, and finally in Art Direction at the Willem de Kooning Academie in Rotterdam.
After my studies, I moved to Italy, where I built a path that intertwines creativity, art direction, and oversight of production processes.
For over twenty-five years, I have worked with images, forms, and visual projects: collections, campaigns, styling, branding, and events.
I have collaborated with international brands such as Ferragamo, Ralph Lauren, Bottega Veneta, Cartier, and Nike.
In recent years, through my Atelier in Rome, I have focused on research into materials, forms, and identity, creating collections and projects that reflect creativity, an essential and timeless aesthetic.
Today, I am broadening my perspective, leveraging my multidisciplinary experience in projects where creativity, communication, and well-being intersect. This transversal vision allows me to combine strategic thinking with aesthetic sensitivity, creating meaningful experiences that are human-centered.
