About Me

Hello! I'm Matthew Diers, I am a Fashion Marketing from New York.

I was born in New York on the North Shore of Long Island. I am graduating from Regents University in London with a Degree in Fashion Marketing. I enjoy the creative process utilizing the latest technology. I have been very successful at selling in the retail environment for Goop and J Crew. I have a passion for sustainability and keeping the planet healthy.

Inspiration

Balmoral A Scottish Menswear Brand

A sustainable Scottish collection. Crafting pieces from locally sourced wool, recycled, waxed, and organic cotton. The definition of smart sleek style. Balmoral aims to provide luxury suits and wax cotton outdoor jackets that can be worn with confidence while helping to protect our planet. The brands concept comes from my Scottish heritage.

After traveling throughout Scotland the inspiration for this brand was visualized. The idea is to create luxury suits that can be worn in every season with a style that will last for years that will defy fast fashion. This brand will produce at the pace of the consumer demand. In contrast to over consumption and production to reduce its environmental footprint.

Humanoid An exploration of how technology advancement has affected our lives through the ages.

In this photo shoot I wanted to explore the ideas of how the progression of technology has affected human life through the ages. The 1950s were a time of tremendous innovation that shaped the technological world as we know it today. As I progressed, you can see in modern time where robots have started to take over some of our menial tasks. In my shoot, I explored how with new technology bearing some of the burden of our daily chores we choose to use that free time to engage with other technology instead of each other.
