Client Testimonials
Natalja pointed out several essential aspects I hadn’t considered in growing my brand and organizing sales. I also learned valuable details about retail, wholesale, and legal aspects — things that will help me avoid costly mistakes in the future. Her advice was precise, practical, and eye-opening.
Natalja encouraged me to reassess my approach — to think more clearly, more strategically. I realized how important it is to stay grounded and take into account all the small details that make up a product. Most importantly, she helped me understand the value of truly knowing my customer — not through templates, but by creating a clear and realistic portrait of the person I’m designing for.
About Me
I have been working in the fashion industry for over 20 years.
My experience with major international brands such as ESCADA, Laurel, and Liu Jo has given me a deep understanding of every facet of the fashion business — from creative direction to retail, B2B, and brand development.
This practical knowledge became the foundation for my PhD thesis, which now forms the core of my signature training programs.
Today, I combine my role as a fashion consultant with academic teaching.
I lecture on Fashion Brand Management and Marketing at universities in Germany, where I share real-world insights with the next generation of fashion professionals.
What I bring to my clients:
Everything I teach is grounded in hands-on experience, research, and years of deep market analysis — both as an analyst and as someone who has been on the ground as a producer, designer, retailer, and buyer.
I help:
-
fashion brands prepare for international expansion
-
designers review and refine their collections
-
boutique owners turn their stores into must-visit destinations
-
and all creative entrepreneurs build sustainable, strategic businesses in the fashion world
What makes my approach different?
I focus not only on problem-solving, but on perspective — because that’s what defines a brand with longevity.
And I know: most designers are creators, not marketers. They’re visionaries — and not always equipped to sell their genius.
That’s where I come in.
With care, clarity, and respect for your values, I’ll help you grow and find your place in the global fashion industry — without losing your voice.
