About
Violet Edwards is a mixed-media textile designer specialising in 3D manipulation, embroidery, and embellishment for Haute Couture catwalk fashion. Violet’s inspiration stems from a curiosity of the otherworldly and unique elements of the natural world. She uses this inspiration to create collaged and 3D drawings experimenting with composition and form throughout her design process. Her work incorporates energetic colour palettes, resulting in innovative and inventive designs. Exploring exciting technique combinations, Violet creates highly intricate, tactile, and bold designs, utilising her skills to create highly expressive and refined collections. Violet enjoys experimenting with unconventional materials, pushing the boundaries of textile design to create one-of-a-kind designs.
The Tropic of Kernow is inspired by memories of summers spent in Cornwall, encapsulating influences from flora, fauna, and fruits shaped by the exotic subtropical climate. The collection explores an energetic pastel colour palette, creating a range of elegant and opulent designs for Spring/Summer 2027. I have created these samples using refined and detailed techniques including embroidery, stitch, and 3D manipulation.
