There is a particular pleasure in opening your wardrobe and knowing the day is yours. I have always known what I wanted from my clothes: refined shapes, beautiful fabrics and effortless style. What I could rarely find was any of it in my size. I wear a 46. For years, I found myself choosing between something I loved and something that fitted. Too often, I had to compromise. The idea of creating something myself stayed with me for a long time. Fashion had always been close to me. I studied at Artemis in Amsterdam, but life took me elsewhere. The idea waited. Until one day I asked myself: if I truly want to do this, what am I waiting for? That was the beginning of FOUND4248. I soon discovered that creating beautiful clothes in these sizes takes more than simply making a pattern larger. Proportions change. Fabrics fall differently. Fit needs patience, precision and attention to every detail. That is what FOUND4248 is built on. Timeless pieces, thoughtful fit and honest quality. Clothes for women who know their style, understand their presence and refuse to compromise. The name means something personal to me. I had found what I wanted to create. And I wanted her to find it too.
