Fresh Talent from Arnhem: Jef Montes

Please introduce yourself to our readers. (Who are you, where do you come from and what is your field of specialization?)

My name is Jef Montes and I am young rising woman’s-designer in the Netherlands. I graduated in 2012 for my Fashion Design Bachelor at ArtEZ Institute of Arts in Arnhem.

I have a very clear vision on shape, color and detail. My specialization is to experiment with different techniques of material and hand-craftsmanship. My way of working is very intuitive but very structural.

I have a very close relationship with my mannequin. Experimenting with shapes on my mannequin comes very natural to me. I love to explore things that come on-logical to my mind. My development is to keep exploring and expanding my own signature.

What inspires you in general?

Art/history, traveling, music, magazines, antique markets, exhibitions etc

Where are you based?

My Atelier is based in Arnhem/The Netherlands.
