"I’ve always seen fashion as material, texture, form and colour so textiles were a natural choice for me. I’ve always loved sculpture, the work of Phyllida Barlow, Franz West, Carsten Höller and Yayoi Kusama from a young age and thought that fashion would be the best form of communication for me.”

Background
“I was always drawn to tacitly, textures, colour and through that textiles. I never really had plans to study fashion, it’s not taught in school and most creative subjects aren’t really given the space they deserve through school. I was really into making things and I learnt to hand knit and this really sparked a further interest.”
