THE DESIGNER

Founder and Creative Director

Mariana Kuenerz has always been passionate about art that involves fashion and elaborate haute couture clothes. After studying at ESMOD in Paris and working at Emanuel Ungaro's atelier, he returned to Brazil and founded his haute couture atelier, which has been ahead for 15 years. In 2016, feeling the need of his brides for pieces made for the honeymoon and of the bridesmaids for cool dresses that could be used in addition to weddings, he founded Meerk.

I saw in the studio that many customers made dresses that they would wear once and then stay in the closet forever. I wanted my pieces to be used over and over again, to be versatile. But how to make pieces that can be used from the beach to a wedding? After researching materials I came to the conclusion that knitting, which can be done with different threads and textures, would be ideal for me to achieve my goal. We managed to give the wedding pieces, with a more stripped model, a Cool-Chic face allowing them to pass from a wedding party to a “sunset al mare”. ”

After 15 years of experience attending brides and having spent her childhood traveling with her parents, knowing different cultures and being close to oriental culture, Mariana believes that the greatest beauty is that which is within us. Through Meerk, she encourages women to be in contact with themselves to find and take possession of this beauty that comes from within.

I want to contribute with women beyond fashion, to bring beauty to women's lives. Not only physical beauty, but also empowering women of their inner beauty.
