Justine & Charlotte
As a team of twin sisters, we love working on this project together. It has given us the opportunity to learn and grow in many different ways. We have been doing this for four summers now, and as we enter our fifth, we still love what we do. Our different interests and talents make us a strong team, and we couldn't do it without each other. This project brings us together and allows us to create something beautiful and unique. We share a love for the summer, the beach, the sun and good vibes, and we attempt to bring that energy into our brand. We are excited about the future and all the possibilities it holds. Thank you for supporting us, and we hope our collection brings you joy and happy vibes.
Hi there! My name is Justine De Hantsetters and I’m one of the driving forces behind Mellizo. Currently, I am pursuing my Master's degree in medicine at KULeuven while completing my internships. In addition to medicine, I am passionate about fashion and jewelry. I love experimenting with different styles and innovative designs and enjoy the process of creating something beautiful that expresses my creativity. I try to bring my artistic flair to every unique piece and design it with an eye for detail. During the summer, I love to spend my time on the beach, soaking up the sun. It's during these moments that I find the inspiration to create unique pieces that reflect the beauty of the summer season. I also take care of the brand’s growth and marketing, leveraging my expertise on social media. I hope you enjoy exploring our collection and finding pieces that speak to you.

Hello, my name is Lucas Laverge and I am the house photographer for Mellizo. As an artist, I play a crucial role in capturing the essence of the jewelry through my lens, supporting the brand’s development and professionalism. Though I am not an official member of the team, I love to offer my creative input and support to my friends. Currently, I am studying Business and Information System Engineering at KULeuven, with a keen interest in informatics. As a result, I played a significant role in creating the website you are visiting today. I was happy to share my expertise and help build and launch the website, and I am pleased to hear that my talent and technical skills shine through in every photograph, adding visual appeal to the website and social media. 
We are grateful for Lucas's contributions and unwavering support, and we are proud to have him as part of our journey. Thank you for everything you do, Lucas!
