OLIVIA BERTUS
Designer
Maastricht, 1979

Olivia Bertus has been active in the industry for approximately 18 years and has been gaining a lot of experience ever since. Her hand drawn prints are characterized by the use of colour and the combinations of patterns, colors and materials. Olivia applies her prints on fabrics and incorporates this in different products, such as bags, pillows, poufs, cuddly toys and various other accessories. “I am the proudest of my own wallpaper and the fact that I work with my own fabrics. Also, the fact that people like my work for a few years now and want to spend money on it”.  In 10 years-time she hopes to have a place where people feel free to walk in, “like a shop or open workspace.”

Olivia is one of the participants of the Business Development Program from Fashion House. “So far, I can manly state that FASHIONCLASH strengthens the feeling that I am heading in the right direction. It gives me confidence and that is exactly where it lacks sometime.”
