ffiXXed is a collaborative art and design project initiated by Australian artist/designers Kain Picken and Fiona Lau in Berlin, February 2008. Beside making fashion collection, Fiona and Kain are very active in art exhibition world-wide. Today, we are glad to invite this sweet couple to share the experience with us :)
Where did the name ffiXXed come from?
We didn’t really think about it that much to be honest. Someone mentioned to us that it was related to the idea of not having a ‘fixed’ location for our project, which we like. There is also with the shift in the spelling a kind of reference to ideas or meaning not being so fixed.

Did you ever thought of making your own clothes, own label and own shop when you are young? I believe it’s many fashion designer’s dreams! Today, let’s see how my new friend, Poppy, made her dream come true :)
Poppy Lissiman was founded in 2009, what made you start doing your own brand?
It sounds really clichéd but I started my own label after I couldn’t find certain pieces in the market that I wanted to wear. My mother taught me to sew at a young age so I have always made clothes for myself and occasionally friends, starting my own label just seemed like the most natural thing to do. It has always been a goal to have my own shop one day as well, starting my label would be the first stepping stone to getting my name out there and eventually having my own store.
