Please introduce yourself: I'm Malou Fool. I am 22 years old and I live in Voorburg. Two years ago I graduated from the Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam. Currently I'm busy with setting up my own men’s label. Beside designing and making clothes I also make leather bags for men.
What inspires you in general?
For my collections I get inspired by collected objects that give me a certain feeling. With that feeling I can make sketches for a new collection. Beside that, I can also get inspiration from people on the street. My interest goes out to people who combine clothes with each other.
Where are you based?
My studio is based in The Hague next to the highway at the exit Voorburg.
What is it like to be a young designer in your city/country?
As a young designer it is really hard to start your own label. There are chances but it is difficult.
