ABOUT THE DESIGNER:
Clarisse approaches fashion as more than clothing, it’s an experience, one that transforms and empowers. Drawing inspiration from the immersive worlds of video games and film, alongside her background in architecture, these influences continue to shape her design language today. At the core of her work is a commitment to empowering others through clothing, while championing a quality-over-quantity mindset, creating garments designed to endure both in craftsmanship and concept.

Having begun sewing in 2021, Clarisse went on to study Fashion Design and Haute Couture in 2022 with the goal of mastering the entire design process from pattern development to final construction, while maintaining the highest standards of quality. She graduated in Spring 2024, where she was awarded the title of Designer of the Year.

Since then, Clarisse has expanded her collection from seven to thirty-two looks, while actively growing the Flair Empire community through social media, in-person events, and runway presentations. Along the way, she has collaborated with both emerging and established models and photographers, continuing to build a distinct and evolving creative universe.
