I'm excited to share something truly special with you—Dreams & Chaos now has a physical home in Monte Estoril, Portugal!

This has been a lifelong dream of mine: to live in Europe and create a space where my passion for design and craftsmanship could flourish in person. Today, that dream is real, and I can't wait for you to be part of this journey.  

How it works

The ground floor of our boutique is where you'll find everything available for purchase—a carefully curated collection of pieces I've handmade with love. But there's more magic happening downstairs: my studio, where I create every single item in our collection.

Each week brings something new to the shelves. I'm committed to keeping things special and intentional. I never make more than three of any one design, and sometimes just one. Why? Because when I fall in love with a fabric or an idea, and I can't source it again, that piece deserves to be unique. There's something beautiful about rarity and exclusivity—each item carries intention and care.

What I Create

My passion lies in women's clothing crafted from woven fabrics and hand-loomed knitwear. Every piece is designed to be worn everywhere—no borders, no limitations, no rules about where these looks belong. Whether you're heading to the work, vacation, out for dinner, or simply living your life, these clothes move with you.

I'm obsessed with the beauty of handmade. The imperfections, the frayed edges, the visible seams and hems—these aren't flaws; they're signatures of care and authenticity. You'll see that rawness often in my designs. Mass production and over-precision have never interested me. What matters is the human touch, the intentionality, the soul in every stitch. And, the cuts on my hands will prove it.

Custom orders

Love a design that's sold out? We offer custom orders on pieces that have disappeared from the shelves. If something speaks to you, reach out—if it's possible i'd love to bring it back to life for you.

We ship worldwide

Even if you can't visit us in Monte Estoril, we're here for you. We ship internationally, and I handle all customs and duties from Portugal so the process is as smooth as possible. You'll receive a separate invoice for these fees, but everything is taken care of on my end. Once Shopify allows it, we'll streamline this into one seamless transaction. However, returns will be quite expensive & timely coming back to Portugal from the States or Asia, so make sure of your sizing. I am available for help with sizing.

And, because I live in sunny Portugal there will always be a warm weather vibe BUT you know i love to layer so these are pieces you can wear year round. Think of us for vacation getaways as well.
