About Me

My name is Darija Vukovic, and I was born in 1979 in Zagreb, the capital of the small and beautiful country of Croatia in Europe. From a young age, I've loved sewing and have always been fascinated by spooky themes like vampires, horror, black cats, bats, and cobwebs.I hold a degree from the Faculty of Textile Technology in Zagreb, which has further honed my skills and expertise in textile design and production. 

I combined my passion for sewing and all things spooky to create my collections and my webshop, Dark Cat, inspired by my favorite animal—the cat.

I have years of experience in sewing, and all my creations are handmade by me with a lot of dark love and attention to detail. Each piece is crafted with care and a deep appreciation for the gothic aesthetic. 

My favorite materials to work with are cotton canvas, lace, and velvet.
