About

I’m a final-year fashion student at the University of South Wales, specialising in both physical and digital garment construction, pattern cutting, and turning sketches into something you can actually wear. With a deep obsession for Formula One and couture-level craftsmanship, I aspire to carve a niche as a motorsport couture designer, where speed meets silhouette and adrenaline meets detail.

Formula 1–inspired athleisure and gymwear design looks that brings the speed, precision, and confidence of motorsport into everyday performance and lifestyle wear. Drawing inspiration from Lululemon’s global ambassador, Lewis Hamilton, the collection translates movement, focus, and energy into functional, stylish pieces. Using technical fabrics, clean yet expressive cuts, and thoughtful layering, each look transitions seamlessly from gym to work to daily life. Balancing performance, comfort, and elevated design, the collection appeals to active consumers who value motorsport energy and high-performance athleisure, while staying true to Lululemon’s premium, minimalist, performance-driven identity.
