WORTH PARTNERSHIP PROJECT

During the pandemic, one of my best friends gave birth to one of Sweden's most premature babies, and she had a hard time bonding with her daughter. Premature babies usually don't look like other babies and have both extremely sensitive skin, but also have to lie in incubators to keep warm.

​

​I saw a big gap in the market where it was not possible to find clothes in a size smaller than 50, and the few clothes that could be special ordered, all had rough seams that could rub or make an impint on the baby's sensitive skin.

​

This led me to contact a designer who, together with me, sketched out a unique garment made entirely of natural fabrics, without seams and with strategically placed holes and built-in pockets where tubes and other hospital equipment could easily remain even though the child was dressed to keep the heat outside the incubator. 

​

This innovation led me to win one of Europe's biggest scholarships as I traveled to Spain to receive my award.

​

I then exhibited the product both at Milan Design Week and Dutch Design Week, where many media outlets drew attention to the product!
