Myrto Dramountani is a Fashion Designer and Architect. She holds a Master's degree from the National Technical University of Athens and she is mostly known for her quirky, sexy, stylish, and avant-garde designs which are characterized by her signature laser-cut dresses. She actively works in greece. Studying fashion at Parsons the New School for Design gave Myrto early exposure to the New York City fashion scene. She was accepted at Parsons with a full scholarship (Parsons Graduate Dean’s Scholarship and Vardinogiannis foundation scholarship). Her work has been published in magazines such as Vogue UK, Glamour UK, Tatler UK, Grazia Middle East, HIA MAGAZINE, Marie Claire, Madame Figaro. The inspiration for her collections is the fabric itself which she approaches as a three-dimensional surface. The laser cut patterns create visual illusions and GIVE SPATIAL properties to her designs. This approach is achieved by using the LATEST computational design techniques and digital fabrication technology.
