Nicolas Dudek, born in 2006, discovered his love for fashion during the first lockdown in 2020, at the age of 13. With no prior connection to the fashion world, he was inspired by the bed linens of his grandmother and began teaching himself how to sew. The extra time during the lockdown allowed him to fully immerse himself in this new passion, and he quickly created his first designs.
In 2022, Nicolas debuted at the Vienna Fashion Week, presenting his first solo collection. He returned in 2023 with his second show and, in 2024, showcased his third collection, “Le Jardin Fleuri,” earning recognition for his bold creativity and unique vision. This consistent presence at the Vienna Fashion Week over three years highlights his exceptional dedication and talent.
Beyond the runway, Nicolas collaborated with Humana in 2024 to design an upcycling collection, emphasizing sustainability. In July 2024, he partnered with SO/ Vienna to organize a “Drag Queen Fashion Show” during Vienna Pride, further demonstrating his versatility and commitment to inclusivity.
Known for his signature use of tulle, Nicolas specializes in creating dramatic, voluminous designs with long trains. His work is celebrated for its diversity and sustainability, with an emphasis on featuring models of all backgrounds. His motto, “Go Big or Go Home,” perfectly embodies his bold approach to fashion.
