About

I am a fashion design student graduating in Summer 2025 from Kingston School of Art, where I have specialised in textiles with a strong focus on storytelling, craftsmanship, and material experimentation. My design practice explores the tension between fragility and strength, drawing on themes of memory, imperfection, and transformation. I am particularly passionate about repurposing vintage and second-hand materials, giving new life to forgotten garments and textiles through thoughtful, contemporary design. I am proficient in print design and printmaking, knitwear (using both domestic and Dubied machines), CLO3D, Adobe Illustrator, and working with specialist materials such as leather and silk. My work combines traditional textile processes with digital innovation to create emotionally resonant and sustainable pieces. My time at Kingston has been deeply formative, filled with creative growth and collaborative experiences that I will always carry with me. As I prepare to graduate, I’m excited for what the future holds and ready to bring a reflective, hands-on approach to the next stage of my journey in fashion.

SEntinel patina lookbook

"Sentinel Patina" is a visual exploration of beauty shaped by time. This collection reimagines garments as vessels of memory, drawing on the contrast between vulnerability and resilience. Silhouettes merge the soft elegance of vintage lingerie with the strength of repurposed military materials — sand-washed silks, chiffon, and lamb’s leather layered against heavy canvas salvaged from 1950s British military bags. Through a curated tension of texture, form, and fabrication, Sentinel Patina invites reflection on the stories clothing can carry. This lookbook presents the collection through a series of intimate, atmospheric images that highlight its emotional depth and material contrasts.
