Portfolio Preparation for Fashion with Marie von Voxel
Digital Costume Designer & 3D Artist | Visiting Lecturer in 3D | Exhibiting Artist

Are you preparing a portfolio to apply for a degree in fashion or costume design? I’ll help you build a clear, compelling portfolio that showcases your creative voice and technical potential.

With over a decade of professional experience in theatre costume and a recent specialization in digital couture, I teach portfolio development the way schools expect it: concept-led, visually strong, and technically confident. As a visiting lecturer at the Estonian Academy of Arts and an exhibiting artist across Europe, I combine artistic direction with practical skills so your work reads as professional and original.

What we’ll work on

Concept & Storytelling: develop a coherent narrative and creative direction for your collection (moodboards, themes, visual research).

Sketching & Visuals: improve your drawing and digital sketching (Photoshop, Procreate workflows, AI-assisted ideation) to present polished looks.

3D & Technical Skills: translate ideas into virtual garments with CLO3D — patterns, fitting, and realistic digital samples.

Advanced Presentation: photoreal renders, motion/video reels, and portfolio layout (Cinema4D, Photoshop, After Effects).

Admissions Prep: portfolio sequencing, written artist statements, CV guidance, and mock admissions interviews in a professional context.

Who this is for

High-school students aiming for competitive fashion programs.

Aspiring designers who want a portfolio that balances creativity with technical evidence.

Students who use Procreate or Photoshop and want to add convincing 3D work to their application.

Why study with me

Rare combination of theatrical costume practice and cutting-edge digital couture.

Hands-on, project-driven lessons tailored to admissions criteria and jury expectations.

Practical support: I help translate and polish your portfolio text, advise on CV/content for applications, and run mock reviews to sharpen your presentation.

Lesson Overview

Who: Johannes – Brand owner and Central Saint Martins graduate with experience in celebrity dressing and industry experience in luxury couture houses

Techniques & methodology: Practice-led, studio-based teaching combining draping on the body, pattern making, sewing, and portfolio development, tailored to individual goals

Lesson length: Typically 90 minutes, allowing time for hands-on making, discussion, and feedback

Who the lessons are for: Students aged 16+, including foundation, BA, and MA applicants, as well as early-career designers seeking portfolio refinement or industry insight

Languages: English and German

Focus: University applications, professional portfolios, technical development, and understanding industry expectations

I am the founder of the fashion brand Johannes and an actively practising designer, bringing an industry-focused approach to teaching. I support students in developing strong, competitive portfolios for university applications and professional roles, with clear guidance on concept development, editing, and presentation aligned with current academic and industry expectations.

My professional work includes designing and dressing international artists such as Björk, Lady Gaga, Grimes, Kylie Jenner, Megan Thee Stallion, Rina Sawayama, and Post Malone for performances, editorials, and public appearances. This experience gives students direct insight into professional standards, timelines, and the realities of working under pressure within the fashion industry. My technical foundation is shaped by experience in couture and luxury fashion environments including Viktor&Rolf, Givenchy, Balmain, and bespoke tailoring ateliers.

My teaching covers draping, pattern making, sewing, and hand-based construction techniques, with a strong focus on fit, proportion, and translating ideas into technically resolved garments. I offer targeted guidance on what universities are looking for at foundation, BA, and MA level: from creative curiosity and process at foundation stage, to technical skill, concept development, and visual clarity at BA level, through to research depth, authorship, and critical positioning at MA level. I work closely with students to ensure their portfolios clearly communicate both creative identity and readiness for academic or professional progression. I am fluent in German and, with formal training in painting, can also support students in developing visual research, composition, and fine art–led portfolio work where relevant.
