The collection is based on the theme of contrast, largely between typical masculine and feminine ideals. The initial areas of research stemmed from bikers and their protective motor-cycle leathers alongside Ballet dancers and their delicate costumes. I wanted to bring the two opposites together in a way that enhanced their distinctiveness yet worked harmoniously as one; creating a feeling of juxtaposition and coalescence
My mum was probably my initial inspiration; she made a lot of clothes for me and my siblings when we were little. My earliest fashion related memory is watching her sew; I was fascinated by the vastness of fashion design and the mystery of how fabrics could be manipulated and constructed into 3D forms. It was also the idea that fashion is wearable art – how satisfying it is to see your creations being worn and enjoyed by others.
A very hard working attitude and positivity within myself.
Anything that inspires me provides motivation; from success stories to London Fashion Week and my favourite designers to anything that triggers a design idea. And to be honest, money is of course a motivation. Fashion is how I want to make my living.
How would you describe your personal style?
At the moment, it would be hard to define. I like to be experimental and I am naturally a very open-minded person. I apply this versatility and resourcefulness to my design ethos; open to change and progression. With my collection, although I am confident with the ideas and design concepts, I am content with it being the beginning of an idea instead of a final outcome with a specific style. It is a very adaptable collection and I plan to develop my personal style using it as a starting point.
A new fabric shop I found. Fabric shops are the place to go for inspiration.
