Projects
- HARVEST GOLDS x SpinExpo CollaborationIn response to the trend based theme ‘Harvest Gold SS18’, I collaborated with 2 other individuals to create a bag collection for the Exhibition. Working carefully and cohesively to a brief supplied by the company SpinExpo. I created hand-woven samples suitable for an accessory application that would coincide with my teams needs. The collection has exhibited at SpinExpo Shanghai and will also exhibit in Paris & New York in Summer 2017.
