Hi! My name is Nicolas Dudek.
I am 17 years old and was born in September 2006 in Warsaw, where I lived for four years. My story starts quite simply; during the first lockdown, my Polish grandmother passed away, and I started sewing from bed linens, teaching myself everything. YouTube videos were just too complicated for me.
In June 2022, I founded my label “Nicolas Dudek.” In September 2022, at just 16 years old, I had my first MQVFW show as the youngest designer, presenting my collection “le ciel.” In March 2023, I released “la montagne” as my first fall-winter collection. At MQVFW.23, I had the honor of presenting “les vacances” for the second time as the youngest designer. In February 2024, I released my upcycling collection in collaboration with Humana.
Everything I sew is exclusively made from deadstock materials, and I consistently prioritize a waste-free approach to ensure the sustainability of my label. Promoting diversity is particularly important to me, so I make it a point to cast models with different backgrounds. Neither the clothing size, height, nor age of my models matters to me.
