Martje Schutte was lucky enough to turn her hobby into work. She has always been fascinated by fashion, design and textile. She used to dress her Barbies up in homemade creations and she grew up between the second-hand clothes from her parents business. Martje Schutte seizes opportunities everywhere. That's how her love for high-end vintage clothes developed in New York, and she got inspired in Kowloon, where she evaluated textile samples. In addition, she worked passionately on her own interior line. So whatever she does, she goes for it.

Now it's Catawiki's turn to enjoy Martje Schutte’s talents. Creating a beautiful auction gives her a real kick. Especially when all goes well and she can make many bidders happy. Thanks to her extensive photo shoot experience, she knows what men and women like to wear and how to present the pieces. Her international orientation allows Martje Schutte to capture Italy's passion or even the sophistication of England in her auctions where special garments get the chance to tell their own unique stories.
