Luuk van der Boom on stage with dancers at The Pianoman Live 2025. Custom made outfits by Passionfruit + Lemonade

Balancing fashion, performance and movement, I designed and created Luuk van der Boom's outfit for The Pianoman Live. I also styled and adjusted the dancer's costumes.

past projects

Knit colour studies

Exploring knit structures, colour combinations and material softness with my Passap E-6000 resulted in a collection of scarves.

Inspired by memories of my time in South Africa, these scarves tell stories of nature, friendships and the craftmanship found in the telephone wire baskets and local beadwork.

Nomalanga
