About mz.universum
Welcome to mz.universum, where anime aesthetics collide with streetwear culture. I’m Macie-J, the artist behind the brand. Originally from Poland and now based in Melbourne, Australia, I’ve always been drawn to bold visuals, expressive storytelling, and the world of Japanese animation.
How It Started
Growing up in the 90s, anime was hard to come by. Shows like Sailor Moon, Magic Knight Rayearth, and Cardcaptor Sakura weren’t just entertainment—they were a source of inspiration. I wanted to wear my love for anime, but finding clothing that reflected that passion wasn’t easy. Sure, there were licensed T-shirts with popular characters, but I craved something more—original designs that captured the essence of anime without being just another branded tee.
That frustration stayed with me. Even today, anime streetwear often revolves around familiar faces, but I wanted to create something different—art-driven apparel that speaks to fans on a deeper level. That’s where mz.universum comes in.
More Than a Brand—A Universe
mz.universum isn’t just a clothing label. It’s a world I’ve been building since childhood—one filled with original characters, heroes, and stories waiting to be told. My art is heavily influenced by anime, but it doesn’t imitate. Instead, it blends the nostalgic energy of classic series with my own unique vision, creating streetwear that feels both fresh and familiar.
A Sustainable Approach
From the start, I knew I didn’t want to contribute to the wastefulness of fast fashion. That’s why mz.universum operates on a print-on-demand model—nothing is produced until it’s ordered. This means:
✔ No wasted stock—every piece is made for someone who truly wants it.
✔ No excess inventory—avoiding overproduction keeps landfills free from unsold items.
✔ A focus on quality—each product is carefully crafted with premium materials.
Partnering with Printful allows me to maintain this commitment while ensuring high-quality production and shipping worldwide.
What to Expect
When you wear mz.universum, you’re not just wearing clothes—you’re stepping into a world built from passion and creativity. Every design is a reflection of my artistic journey, inspired by the anime and JRPGs that shaped me. Whether you're a lifelong anime fan or simply appreciate bold, original art, this brand is for you.
I hope my creations ignite inspiration, resonate with your style, and connect you to a world where self-expression has no limits.
Welcome to mz.universum—anime-inspired streetwear, redefined.
