“little moments create big memories” – A dream comes true

Last year in December, a little dream of mine came true.

The label Herzgut approached me and asked if I would be interested in designing a small collection with them. Of course I didn’t have to think twice!

Herzgut is one of my very first cooperation partners. The brand has been producing fair fashion in Mainz since 2018. It pays attention to sustainability and stands for high-quality, casual, comfortable and minimalist styles.

Exactly mine! Now

I would never have dared to dream some time ago.

We didn’t have long

We met in a video call for a brainstorming session. My head was buzzing with ideas. We exchanged suggestions, ideas and inspiration for quite some time.

The clothing from Herzgut is characterized above all by the fact that behind every item of clothing there is a statement in the form of a print. I wanted the print on my collection to put you in a good mood when you put it on in the morningas well as all those you meet during the day and read the print.
In all the statements that we put together and with which I could identify, the same words were used again and again. Moments. Memories. Horizon. Scythe.
After getting feedback from family and friends again and again
from family and friends
my statement was suddenly clear.



Little Moments create big Memories

That was my “good-vibe” statement. I associate it with my childhood. Our old house with the tiled stove, in front of which my brother and I sat in our bathrobes after a bath. I can still smell the fire today and hear the crackling of the flames. I associate this memory with the exact feeling that I associate with this moment.

My print is a reminder of the little moments in life that may not seem important, but which end up being the most precious memories of our lives. Let us appreciate the beauty of the everyday and strive to fully enjoy every moment.

Once the statement had been found, it was time for the design. I was spoiled for choice when it came to the font, colors and position of the print. Blue, white, pink, red, yellow?

I decided to place the print in the middle, because that’s how it catches the eye the most.
For the color I decided on a dark blue tone as the base color for the sweater. Since it’s nice and warm and cozy and therefore more suitable for cooler days, I thought a slightly darker color was appropriate. Of course, bright lettering stands out particularly well, so I chose the colors pink and cream for the lettering.

The T-shirt made me think of summer and what could be better than bright and colorful colors.

I wanted white for the base color. The color white can be combined with anything and I wanted to design something for every day.

The font was then allowed to be a little unusual, so I chose the good mood colors turquoise and pink.

And then it was done. I had designed my own collection. I could only really believe it when I held the garments in my hand and was able to wear them.

I hope you experience many little moments with my collection that will become the most precious memories.
