Fashion



For this collection I had to write my own brief so I decided to look at knots. I studied all different types of knots and found ways of incorporating them into knitted fabrics. I was really pleased with the results and this project was the inspiraion for my final show.

Fashion:Menswear


The brief for this project was to create fabrics for menswear based on the idea of Long John Silver. I really enjoyed this project as I love designing for fashion. This project was also the start of my fascination with joints and knots.

Fashion


This project was based on Japanese Textiles. These fabrics are intended to be used for fashion.

Interiors





These are a few of my fabric samples from an Interiors project inspired by beach huts and the idea of "Castaway".
