Debut and exclusive for GUCCI S/S 23

Maria, who shares the same DNA with her identical twin sister Alexandra, is from a relatively small town in Greece. The strong, resilient & unique bond Maria shares with Alexandra is simply a part of how they experience the world together- a connection that transcends mere sisterhood. Growing up, they never dreamt of being models, as they were competitive swimmers with 15+ years of training, while they still actively go to swimming practices. It was the synchronicity of timing and fate that scripted their entry into the high echelons of fashion, when they got scouted on social media, a platform they use to empower young individuals to follow their dreams. For them, fashion acts as a communicative tool- a conduit for positive emotions, a language spoken without words as they reveal.

Having to face their mom’s incurable disease at the age of 15, they found strength and inspiration by watching fashion shows. Armed with a 4-year Business & Finance bachelor degree, they combined their love for the industry with their bachelors and both are currently completing their scholarship-funded MBA luxury fashion degrees in Paris.

Maria and Alexandra love the creativity on this job, meeting new people, travelling and bringing visions to life. Undeniably, they see themselves continue working on the industry, as working alongside creative individuals excites them and they hope to pass this positive feeling that fashion offers to others. Their tale, a symphony of resilience and sisterhood, is a testament to the power of unity in a world that often thrives on singularity.
