I am an independent scholar in fashion studies. I received my PhD in 2020 from University of the Arts London, London College of Fashion with the thesis "The Women of Little Paris: Women's Fashion in Interwar Bucharest". My research interests include fashion culture and history, semiotics, modernity, ideology and politics, cultural studies (gender, urban), anthropology, personal archaeology, art and media history.
