Ximena is a fashion illustrator and designer based in Auckland, New Zealand, creating hand-drawn artwork that blends elegance, narrative, and couture-inspired detail. Her illustrations often explore the intersection of fashion, femininity, and storytelling; brought to life through a combination of digital and traditional techniques.

In 2025, she launched By Ximena Studio, a creative practice focused on illustrated textiles, fashion art, and collectable design pieces. Her upcoming collections include a series of silk scarves inspired by cityscapes, editorial fashion, and timeless craftsmanship.

Ximena welcomes bespoke collaborations and select commissions, and is currently developing a licensing portfolio of her signature illustrations and surface designs. For enquiries or to discuss a project, please get in touch at studio@byximena.co
