Lolita nenita is a British designer with Chilean-Italian heritage, born and raised in London. Her experience of cultural nuances growing up has shaped her identity and point of view as a designer. Nostalgia, femininity and revelling in the joys of dressing up are key reference points that Lolita has been able to investigate and build upon over her degree.
It’s interesting how small things can have such a large impact on someone’s passions and pursuits in life. When I was a child, my mum would play old musicals like Singing in the Rain and Funny Face on TV whilst she took care of my siblings and I. These perfect, technicolour images had a life-lasting impact on me and are still at the core of why I aspire to emerge myself in a creative world. Fashion, Music, and Film are connected by a love of storytelling and escapism. They have guided my recognition of and appreciation for my heritage and identity.
