5 Minutes With: Charlotte De Geyter

Originally published in The Journal.

Fashion designer, artist and co-founder of Antwerp-based label, Bernadette, Charlotte De Geyter is a busy woman. But for the past few months she, like most of us, has spent life indoors; drawing, cooking and appreciating the bright side to slower living – most notably, more time spent with her (relatively new) cat, Miuchat.
