About me
I am a recent graduate of fashion design from Manchester School of Art (results pending). I specialize in knitwear and have an aptitude for textile design. I am now based in London and I am looking for a job or internship. I enjoy designing menswear but have the most experience with womenswear. I am skilled in the design and make processes traditional to the fashion industry

    Anemoia (film)This editorial is based on ‘Anemoia’, which is the word used to describe having nostalgia for a time you’ve never known. We all romanticize past eras and claim we were born in the wrong generation, but completely gloss over the fact that life would of been much harder, especially for women. We’re looking at it through rose tinted glasses. Yeah past eras have cooler clothes and funner hair, but what about human rights? Taking inspiration from a handful of different eras that are romanticized all

    During my time I helped work on their SS20 collection. My time was split between running errands and working in the the studio. In my studio time I toiled garments, adjusted patterns, worked on some final garments, and drew up cads. Errands included a variety of things from sourced materials and communicating with their London factory to posting packages. I have also worked backstage at AW19 and SS20 dressing models.
