About
Multi-disciplinary textile designer for high-end, bespoke fashion with specialism in digital print and embroidery design plus a strong interest and knowledge of the modern luxury fashion industry. With my work inspired predominantly by my love for colour and material, there’s an underlying continual inspiration from the moments of joy I experience within my surroundings day to day, predominantly within the natural world. I aim to bring optimism to contemporary fashion with my expressive designs and vibrant use of colour and material. My designs are predominantly composed of my unique hand-rendered approach to illustration that captures my creative enthusiasm.
‘OTHERWORLDLY’ is a project inspired by the elements of nature that appear ‘out of this world’. With a colour palette combined from the WGSN A/W 24/25 trends of 'Luminescent brights' paired with 'Eerie nocturnal darks' at the forefront and an approach to print inspired by 'Ghostly illusions' from A/W 24/25 print predictions... This collection reimagines florals in womenswear by distorting and deconstructing florals in a vibrant colour palette that brings joy, empowerment and optimism. The collection pushes a maximalist, modern and contemporary approach to the timeless integration of florals in the upcoming high-end and bespoke fashion context. This collection focuses on creating impact by capturing expressive hand-drawn textures and motifs combined with delicate distortions through digital print and CAD embroidery with carefully considered use of eye-catching, manmade materials with otherworldly shine and iridescence.
