Carmen (MSc) is a moderator, writer, cultural consultant and whose practice rests on a foundation of research into fashion and music. Her focus for the past few years has been on contemporary fashion and music from Europe and Africa. Her aim in everything she does is to celebrate brands and individuals that inspire her and bring them to the attention of a broader international audience. Her work has been published in i-D, Marie Claire, ModeMuze, OneWorld, Patta and Dazed, and she’s often called upon to give guest lectures and participate in panel discussions. Her most recent venture is Showroom, a retail outlet and creative studio launched in partnership with photographer Coco Olakunle. Located in the east of Amsterdam, it operates as a shopfront for a select community of independent fashion designers and photographers, as well as a bookstore and event space.
