I am the founder of the fashion brand Johannes and an actively practising designer, bringing an industry-focused approach to teaching. I support students in developing strong, competitive portfolios for university applications and professional roles, with clear guidance on concept development, editing, and presentation aligned with current academic and industry expectations.

My professional work includes designing and dressing international artists such as Björk, Lady Gaga, Grimes, Kylie Jenner, Megan Thee Stallion, Rina Sawayama, and Post Malone for performances, editorials, and public appearances. This experience gives students direct insight into professional standards, timelines, and the realities of working under pressure within the fashion industry.

My teaching covers draping, pattern making, sewing, and hand-based construction techniques, with a strong focus on fit, proportion, and translating ideas into technically resolved garments. I offer targeted guidance on what universities are looking for at foundation, BA, and MA level: from creative curiosity and process at foundation stage, to technical skill, concept development, and visual clarity at BA level, through to research depth, authorship, and critical positioning at MA level. I work closely with students to ensure their portfolios clearly communicate both creative identity and readiness for academic or professional progression. I am fluent in German and, with formal training in painting, can also support students in developing visual research, composition, and fine art–led portfolio work where relevant.

Using traditional techniques (hand drawing) or through the use of a digital medium (Adobe Photoshop), drawing is a fundamental element in fashion to capture the ideas and concepts that are in our mind and to be able to give them physical form.

Understanding human body proportions, color theory, and how to accurately represent textile textures are tools that greatly simplify the creative process when planning your designs.

My classes are designed for beginners who want to learn to sew from scratch, in a practical, simple and creative way.

My proposal to start with is based on 3 modules:

1. Learn how to prepare and use your sewing machine:
We'll learn the main parts of the machine, how to prepare the material, insert the thread and bobbin, select the stitches, and begin sewing correctly. We'll practice basic techniques so you can use the machine safely and confidently.

2. Create your own shoulder bag
You will choose the fabric and color you like best and together we will make a shoulder bag from scratch.

3. Create your own skirt
As your next project, you will learn how to create a pattern from your own measurements and make a skirt, whether mini or long, adapted to your style.

And then... we'll keep creating! We can move on to new projects and garments based on your interests and what you want to learn!
