About

I’m a recent BA graduate from Manchester Fashion Institute, skilled in all aspects of design process from conceptualisation to pattern making to final production. I have a keen eye for detail and an eclectic approach when designing, collating textiles and trims is essential to my design process.

honey i’m home

‘Honey I’m home’ is a celebration of maximalism, heavily inspired by interior design specifically the arts and crafts movement. I have approached design with William morris being a massive source of inspiration, creating prints using local graffiti as my ‘flora and fauna ‘ to form repeat floral prints. The use of satin, velvets and layering of prints in the collection emulates the luxurious and excessiveness of the arts & crafts period. The collection is expressive and playful with frills and tassels taking dopamine dressing to a new level.
