Laura Krettek, lives and works in Leipzig, Germany. In 2016 she completed her master’s degree in fashion design at the „College of Applied Art Schneeberg“.

During her education she completed several internships in Budapest at the „National Theater of Hungary“ and discovered her enthusiasm for elaborate costumes. Through her high affinity for science fiction films, she likes to deal with such silhouettes in her artistic works. As a result, her greatest passion is the development of new surfaces as well as experimental fashion design. Through the interest in extraordinary techniques, materials and phenomena of this world, she creates steadily unusual creations.

With the tendency to the unusual, she already developed a progressive avant-garde collection in Borås (Sweden) in 2014, at Högskolan i Borås, which, by means of simulated skeletal structures, reflects the rebellious character in her fashion. During this time, she became a vegan through research into the production of animal-based textiles and their impact on animals, the environment and humans.

Menace and elegant at the same time, material and structure appear in their works. Her methods are conceptual and interdisciplinary. Going beyond the limits of fashion, she haunts determined progressive ways in terms of surface design, textile production, fashiontech and craftsmanship.

“I’m always searching for the perfect design or material. But each time I hoping not to find it – because it’s the search and to experiment what I really love at my work.” Laura Krettek
