DIANA PAUKSTYTE

THE LANGUAGE

Avant-garde / Mysticism / Drama / Melancholy / 3D Texture / Creativity

THE MATERIALS

Wool / Cotton / Viscose / Silk

AGAINST THE BODY

“I rebel against conventional ideas of the female figure and female sexuality. My clothes have always been large and without a defined waist. I’m drawn to something loose and oversized. To me, that silhouette feels more beautiful and mysterious.”

IF FASHION DISAPPEARED

“I would create enormous black dresses with painted 3D textures. They might be heavy and uncomfortable to wear, but they would exist more as works of art. I want to dive deeply into emotion and give it physical form.”

THE MUSE

Lady Gaga. But Paukštytė’s ultimate fantasy extends beyond the stage: creating costumes for a mystical historical film where imagination could exist without limits.

OPENING SCENE

A black beach in Iceland. Volcanic rocks disappear into the distance. A woman with long white hair appears in a white dress and metal corset—part apparition, part Jeanne d’Arc.

CURRENT FREQUENCY 

Ludwig Göransson / Luca D’Alberto / Sebastian Plano / Max Richter

WHAT COMES NEXT

“I don’t create trends, and I don’t follow them. Creativity comes from somewhere deeper. I’m exploring new meditation practices now and observing how they might change my work.”
