About

I am a fashion textile designer, interested in the conceptual world mimicked into a fashion conversation. I work primarily with innovative textiles, creating techniques that are unique to my projects and my tastes. In fashion today I believe its important to carry your personal ethics with you, personally I verge toward craftmanship as my ethical fashion, creating a textile that may not be widely used in fast fashion but instead to create versatile fashion that can blend into a range of fashion movements whilst still being unique.

The concept behind this project was to push my previous ideas from my pre collection, into a more material concept. It looks at the intimacy of travel in space and the transformations that occur travelling through black holes in order to reach point A from point B. Physically forcing two materials together to materialise the forces of gravity in space
