Entrance on stage — event expertise by Takis

Origins

Born into an artistic lineage — a grandfather who was a painter and teacher and a mother who was head seamstress — I grew up at the heart of art and creation. From an early age, my interest turned to dance and body expression, disciplines that deeply influenced how I conceive garments in motion.

Artistic education

Fashion became obvious and I directed my studies toward visual arts to refine my graphic and technical skills. Later I completed this path with a diploma in Fashion Design and Creation and advanced training in DTP (Desktop Publishing), essential tools to design mockups, trend boards and professional production dossiers.

Thus, my path blends academic training and artistic practice, providing a solid foundation to imagine costumes and looks that interact with stage, set and light.

Professional career

Over the years, I have carved a dual career: artistic and stylistic. Indeed, my background in styling is paired with real expertise in art direction, production management and coordination of technical teams.

Cross-disciplinary skills

Over the years, I have built a dual skillset: artistic and stylistic. My styling background has been complemented by genuine know‑how in art direction, production management and technical team coordination.

Therefore, I work on sketch creation and mockups as well as supervision of fabrication, material research and costume finishing. Mastery of DTP strengthens my ability to produce clear production dossiers, technical boards and communication supports.

Consequently, I can oversee all project stages: from creative conception to logistics, including management of participants (costumers, dressers, makeup artists, photographers, set designers). This transversal approach guarantees aesthetic and operational coherence on every event realization.

Achievements and references

I invite you to discover my universe through the eponymous Takis brand, dedicated to high‑end ready‑to‑wear and the creation of original stage costumes.

My experience in dance and performance allowed me to design outfits and projects for recognized clients and companies, including Canon Belgium, Luc Petit, Ecosfeeria, DBS Professional Dance Company, Brothers & Sisters, VIP Belgium, and for event nights in clubs such as Mirano, Spirito or Noxx/Ikon.

I have also led complete projects — from thematic concept to sketch, from costume production to photographic staging — such as the creations for The 7 Deadly Sins — the costumed collection inspired by Ancient Egypt — After at LOUIS XV.

Services offered

I offer a turnkey service for your events: theme conception, prototype realization, fabrication (sale or rental), dressing and stylistic support on the day. Finally, I can mobilize a network of professional partners (photographers, dressers, makeup artists/hairdressers, set designers) to ensure the success and quality execution of your event.
