CREATOR - EXXONE

Could you introduce yourself to the readers?

"Certainly, My Name is Chris i'm 27 years old and i live in Belgium."

What Inspired you to start developing?

"I started devving in 2008 but my career really took off when I began to specialise in formal men's fashion. When I started to realise there was a lack of appealing formal fashion for men, I became inspired. So I decided to create a Suit Label, "Class" - You've got to start somewhere, so I made some suits for myself and then put them out there on the open market - with new ideas, feedback and a constantly developing area in fashion I went on to create several more labels off the back of my first. Unexpectedly it got more succes then i ever anticipated. I try to make clothing that is innovative and forward thinking. And all the feedback and kind words i got from the community means that I must be doing something right, after all, I went from a level 4 creator to a level 6 creator within a short space of time and that's an extremely proud personal achievement of mine thats i couldnt achieve without the help of my customers and fans. So i want to thank them all for that! Thanks to them I'm still motivated and creating is something that I'm passionate about, so I don't think you'll see me slow time anytime soon"

Are there any developers you would like to collaborate with?

there are a few developers i keep my eye on for an oppurtunity for a collaboration. I'm currently on a collaberation with the amazingly talented pose developer Voque. We've been discussing many collaborations and ideas to help eachother out in the near future, so keep an eye out for that!
