I’m Adina Koechlin, a 26-year-old menswear designer with a fascination for textiles and knitwear. During my time at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute, this fascination grew into a handwriting that blends tradition with innovation, playfulness with depth.
My work explores the space between heritage and modernity, translating knitwear into garments that carry both comfort and strength. I draw on storytelling to express transitions and contrasts, while also grounding my practice in technical skills such as digital design, knit programming, and 3D development. Each piece is created with the intention to last—functional, expressive, and rooted in a deep fascination for knit.
