A Fashion and Textiles Graduate Collaboration with Licata (Jodi Delicata), embracing a variety of leftover materials in unconventional patchwork and knitted forms to create Ready-to-Wear garments for s/s 25. Stemming from our shared love for one-off tactile clothing and taking a freeing and expressive approach inspired by streetwear, LICATATOWLER blurres boundaries by taking the form of lingerie, dresses and two piece sets.
