About
I’m Zoe Bennett, a fashion design student at Birmingham City University with a focus on textiles, material exploration, sustainable construction and illustration. My design approach combines creativity, attention to detail, and a strong problem-solving mindset.I’ve gained hands-on industry experience through internships and live projects, including winning the Birmingham Panthers’ 2025 Superleague kit design and collaborating with brands like Superdry and Gill Marine. These opportunities have deepened my understanding of garment construction, fittings, and production processes.My work has been featured at Birmingham Fashion Week and exhibited at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens, showcasing my ability to bring concepts to life in both creative and professional settings.I’m always eager to push boundaries, learn from others, and bring fresh, innovative thinking to every project.
This collection explores the collision of two iconic worlds: the traditional English “lad culture” and the glitz and chaotic energy of Studio 54. At the heart of this fusion is Grace Jones, the bold androgynous diva who blurred the lines of femininity and masculinity. Though seemingly worlds apart, this collection is a celebration of contradictions, where ordinary meets the extraordinary, the grit of everyday life and the glamour of the night come together in unexpected harmony. Grace Jones, with her fearless identity embodies the intersection these worlds, the raw unfiltered authenticity of the pub meets the audacious disco scene.
