Melis Özek (b. 1999, Ankara, TR) is an art director and writer based in Milan, whose work navigates the profound, often existential narratives behind music, fashion, and art. With a focus on the philosophical undercurrents that shape creative processes, she uncovers the stories that inform and inspire artistic practice. 

In fashion, her perspective extends beyond aesthetics, exploring clothing as a language of identity, cultural memory, and transformation. Her writing offers a refined lens on the intersections of art, style, and the human experience, positioning fashion not only as an industry but also as a medium of thought. Through her work, Melis invites readers to engage with creative expression as both a reflection and a catalyst for deeper reflection.
