I am a Textiles Designer Graduating from Nottingham Trent University. I specialize in weave, with an interest in creating fabrics which can be worn and loved for years. I enjoyed creating both jacquard and hand woven samples to create a diverse collection of women's outerwear fabrics for my final project.
Projects
- Structural ImpressionsEnthused by withdrawing beauty from everyday urban surroundings, this collection of woven womenswear fabrics evokes a sophisticated feel with a playful twist on texture and colour. Longevity is key, with consideration of consumer communication about the quality of the yarns and how to care for their garment.
