Get to know Darija

Darija holds a degree in Fashion Marketing & Retailing and has built a diverse foundation across styling, content creation, and brand storytelling. Her experience spans from assisting on editorial shoots to developing creative campaigns that balance imaginative concepts with data-driven insights. She currently focuses on styling while continuing to expand her expertise in content direction and campaign strategy. Darija is passionate about shaping narratives that connect audiences with fashion in meaningful, visually compelling ways.

“My design philosophy is rooted in creating work that lingers in memory - knowing how to “speak” to people through both visuals and words. I draw inspiration from the people around me, from music, and from brands that reflect my own style and sensibility”

Social Media Campaigns

As part of an academic project, Darija developed a full 360° campaign concept for a celebrity–brand collaboration. The project went beyond social media planning — she built a complete strategic framework that defined campaign goals, SMART objectives, and target audience segments, while also exploring the reasoning behind the chosen brand–celebrity partnership.

The slide lists various digital platforms and their uses for advertising, including Instagram & TikTok, YouTube, Pinterest, Spotify, and Google Ads. There is a highlighted text box on the right side stating, "Purpose: Each platform is strategically chosen to maximize visibility, engage distinct audience segments, and drive action through tailored content."

As part of my Fashion Writing course, I created a magazine-style feature exploring the evolving landscape of luxury consumer experience. For this project, I conducted an in-depth interview with a fashion specialist who, at the time, worked as a Brand Specialist at Farfetch within the Private Client department. Her role spanned client relations, personal styling, and luxury item sourcing, giving me valuable insight into how high-end fashion brands cultivate loyalty through tailored service.
This project allowed me to refine my editorial voice, develop strong interview techniques, and translate industry expertise into an engaging narrative suitable for publication.

While working within the International Womenswear department at Harvey Nichols, Darija collaborated closely with the Head Office to conceive, style, and photograph elevated outfit concepts for luxury houses including The Row and Rohe.

Private Client Styling

Outside of her regular professional duties, Darija also worked as a personal shopper, collaborating closely with a client who is a dedicated admirer of Louis Vuitton. Her role involved sourcing exclusive fashion pieces and styling them into curated outfits tailored to the client’s aesthetic and lifestyle.

Beyond showcasing luxury craftsmanship, Darija also established a trusted relationship with LV staff, ensuring a seamless and personalised shopping experience for her client.
