Statement
Course Studied - BA (Hons) Fashion, graduated in July 2006 with a 2:1
Biog: I have been interested in the field of the arts all through my life
and latterly I work closely along the links between fashion and music.
Being a musician means music plays and important influence in my designs.
My design work heavily incorporates the use of print as well as fabric
manipulation and studying my degree has help me develop these design qualities
alot further.
Initial inspiration for my university final collection was taken from
vintage garments from charity shops and thrift markets, these garments
posed the questions to me "what was the story behind these garments,
who had worn them and where had they been?" This followed on to me
wanting to produce garments that had printed fabrics with a story already
engrained into them before they were worn. All the garments keep a hand
crafted appearance to them to give a romantic and vintage quality.
