About Valeria
Valeria Pulici is an artist and fashion designer from Italy, currently based in London. She holds an MA in Fashion from Central Saint Martins and is one of the winners of the 2023 Dr. Martens x Central Saint Martins Award. Her work was shown at the Dutch Design Week in 2022, as part of the Future Materials LAB in the Jan Van Eyck Academie, and again in 2024, as part of the New Order of Fashion cohort. Her 2022 bioplastic artwork has been featured on the Future Materials Bank website.
In May 2025, she was invited as a guest artist and researcher to the Future Materials Encounter #24: On Bioplastics.
The incorporation of bioplastics into her designs encourages a reevaluation of materiality and promotes the use of circular and regenerative practices within the art and fashion industries. She believes that materials possess the power to convey emotions, evoke memories, and inspire new sensory experiences. Her work focuses on highlighting the versatility and creativity of bioplastics for art and fashion while experimenting with a variety of custom techniques and materials developments.

Together, we’ll develop new recipes, play with existing ones, build a material library, and explore creative ways to use bioplastics.
I’ll share my personal bioplastic research and material library to help kickstart your journey — plus techniques for casting, molding, sculpting, cutting, and sewing bioplastics into artworks, garments, and objects.
We’ll cover everything from natural dyes to plasticizers, biopolymers, and fillers — with plenty of tips to help you push your samples further!
I have been offering bioplastic consulting to artists, designers and creatives to help them with their projects, whether they were looking for sustainable alternatives for sculpting and molding or to create a bioplastic artwork.

Recommended by my tutor in CSM, Valeria has been an amazing person to talk to. I felt seen and understood in ways that I normally don’t feel with other design professors. She is extremely kind and will listen to you and advise you with the knowledge that she carries both in fashion and art.
All the conversations I had with her were really helpful, we all agreed on that.
Thanks!!!Valeria is such a kind and helpful person who goes above and beyond. It’s a pleasure talking to her. I really appreciate all the advice she gave me. Thanks again!!!
I’ve had the pleasure of consulting with Valeria, Central Saint Martins MA Fashion graduate, on a recent project. Valeria is an empathetic tutor, whose repertoire ranges from creative and technical skills to a comprehensive understanding of the fashion industry.
She is passionate about understanding and helping to define her students personal narrative, offering guidance and feedback that is honest, challenging and encouraging. I would recommend Valeria to other members seeking support on how to best present your work—whether for educational or professional purposes.It gives me great pleasure to write this recommendation for Valeria Pulici. I was preparing my application for the MA Fashion program at Central Saint Martins, and from our very first one-hour video session, I could tell she was incredibly knowledgeable and supportive. She clearly explained the entire application process, including how to approach the personal statement, build a strong portfolio, and what to expect from CSM overall.
After I drafted my personal statement, Valeria gave me detailed and thoughtful feedback with notes, which made the writing process much more manageable. Her guidance helped me bring out my voice with clarity and confidence.
When I moved on to the portfolio, we had several sessions focused on portfolio development, where she patiently explained every aspect and helped me rethink and revise my work. We went through multiple rounds of feedback, and her insights were instrumental in refining my ideas and presentation. Thanks to her support, I was selected for the interview round.
A few days before the interview, we had another video session where Valeria helped me prepare. She pointed out key areas to focus on, walked me through possible interview questions, and gave me valuable advice on how to present myself confidently. I was feeling quite nervous, but her encouragement and practical tips made me feel much more at ease and ready.
Valeria is a tutor who works in depth. She is patient, insightful, and genuinely invested in your success. I highly recommend her to anyone applying to top fashion programs or seeking guidance on creative applications. She is a true mentor.I have consulted with Valeria, an alumnus of my university with a holistic and renowned design practice, for professional portfolio insights. Valeria has been concise in her advice, which is well-informed, observant, and derived from a very large repertoire of her own research.
I would recommend Valeria to other members for her ability to understand individuality in design language and help members sharpen it further to make a stronger, outstanding portfolio.
