As a daughter of a Nigerian mother and an Austrian father I can definitely say that I have a unique perspective on life and that I didn’t have to search too far to uncover my passion; it was right there, front and center, always by my side - my mother was a super model.

The spark that ignited my love affair with all things fashion wasn’t glamor or magazine covers. It wasn’t beauty or the fast-paced fashion industry that got me hooked. Honestly, I didn’t know exactly what it was until I designed my first dress. There is something intoxicating about the vision and the creative process that wakes you up in the middle of the night looking for a sketchpad. It continues with the excitement of searching for fabric and making your sample. And then it happens, the moment when someone steps out wearing your creation. That is the “Reveal Moment” that turns the woman you want to be, into the woman you are! I design for that shared “moment;" the incredible sensation and the surge of fulfillment that both my clients and I feel.

The Muehleder brand is about being noticed, standing out and making a statement. “I have arrived,” “I am here,” “This is who I want to be.” Your beauty is timeless and powerfully unique. It’s you on the red carpet, at an intimate dinner, a public brunch or a night around town. My dress or design is an expression of your "moment" and I am humbled by all my clients who choose my art to express their strength, beauty, and grace in that moment.
