About me
I am a Textiles graduate who loves sewing and is a visual and hands on designer with my main interest being CAD embroidery both designing digitally and using the machines. I am a creative but practical thinker who works in/with a methodical approach but also loves to experiment with fabrics and stitch.
Projects
- Electricity - The MotherboardThis project was inspired by electricity, with my main inspirations being the motherboard, magnetic waves and electrical items. The tonal colour palette was selected for a futuristic vibe that has also been reflected through my choice of garment shapes. The collection uses a range of techniques to create the fashion fabrics for my Autumn/Winter women's wear collection, including CAD embroidery and laser cut embellishments.
- Outer SpaceOuter Space is a textile fashion collection, focusing on digital embroidery, laser cut fabrics and embellishments for fashion fabrics. This collection was inspired by space, including planets, rockets and space dust. The main fabrics used in this project were leatherettes, PVCs and organzas.
