She also interned for at Alexander Mcqueen and Claudy Jongstra. She was also a former assistant Viktor & Rolf. She approaches her work like a scientist bringing artisanal crafts on a experimental level. 

"For me fashion is an expression of art that is very close related to me and to my body. I see it as my expression of identity combined with desire, moods and cultural setting."
"A mix of ready-to-wear and couture pieces is presented with artist Lawrence Malstaf -who specializes in the interaction between biology and physicality.Models float in the air, embryonic, seemingly weightless and in a meditative suspended animation."
