About me

I am a Fashion Design Womenswear graduate at Central Saint Martins. Throughout my years at uni I tried to connect my interests in illustrating, textile design and fashion into one. I am especially interested into ethical design and upcycling.

• CAN'T SEE THE WOOD FOR THE TREES (GRADUATE COLLECTION)My graduate collection is about the forest I used to go to as a child and the forest that I went to during lockdown. I have created new materials from what you can gather/see in the forest and brought these elements into a context of practicality and functionality. Using materials like bark, leaves, needles and soil the wearer merges into their natural surroundings. In order to make these natural materials functional and wearable I experimented with waxing and different types of treating the mat
