✨ Alumni Spotlight | Alicia Roestermundt
From winning the Junk Kouture Irish Grand Final in 2021 with Iconoclastic Fantastic when studying at Colaiste Bride Enniscorthy to building a career in tailoring and costume for the stage, we’re delighted to reconnect with Junk Kouture alum Alicia Roestermundt. After finishing school, Alicia spent a voluntary year in the costume department at Staatstheater Darmstadt where she discovered a love for working on stage productions. She went on to begin a three-year apprenticeship as a men’s tailor at Staatstheater Stuttgart developing her skills in traditional tailoring while gaining experience in the creative and organisational work behind theatre productions. Now entering the final year of her apprenticeship, Alicia says: “Junk Kouture has had a major impact on my career choices so far.” We love seeing where that first experience of designing, creating and experimenting can lead.
