Projects
- Graduate Collection at Graduate Fashion Week 2017This was the collection I created for my final year collection during my degree in Fashion Design at Nottingham Trend university. I was inspired by 17th & 18th century painted photos of Geishas & prostitutes; to the untrained eye they look extremely similar but the finer details reveal their differences. The realities of their lives are a stark contrast.
- Mini self negotiated Pangaia accessories projectThese products were designed to aid customers to achieve their goals, through interchangeability and ultra-functionality. It is inspired by "the new normal" and our adjusted lifestyles, with an enhanced appreciated for the outdoors and subsequently, using physical activity instead of public transport. I have been conscious to incorporate the distinctive Pangaia style and embracing their environmental values in the material & dye choices.
