Fashion designer Vanessa Sauer on creativity

Vanessa Sauer is a fashion designer who creates from instinct, inspiration, and a deep connection to creative energy. In her 2017 interview with The Creativs, she shares how building mental space and staying true to herself are essential to her process.

Vanessa Sauer opens up about the challenges and beauty of living creatively. Here are three insights she shares:

• "I'm a fashion designer because it feels natural to me." For Vanessa, designing isn’t just a career, it’s a calling. She followed her dream despite the difficulties, staying committed to her authentic path.

• "When I develop creative ideas, I build a bubble I can get into." Travel, music, and careful control of her environment help Vanessa escape daily noise and enter a mental space where fresh ideas can flow freely.

• "Finding words gives ideas shape." For Vanessa, communication, talking through concepts and visions with others, is a powerful way to clarify and evolve creative work.
