The Lady of the manor , explores a young woman who inherits a grand Manor House. Surrounded by heirlooms , furnishings, luxurious fabrics and timeless Pieces. Experimenting with its hidden treasures, she reinterprets these through a modern and playful lens.This project blends heritage, craft and classic tailoring whilst also having a more contemporary, confident and elegant style. My work draws from the grandeur and atmosphere of historic interiors such as Chatsworth House, particularly the decorative richness and exterior architecture of manor houses from the 18th to early 20th centuries. Using feminism as a lens to reinterpret traditional ideas of femininity, status, and domestic life. Through interior details, historical references, and ancestral inspiration, the work aims to blend personal history with broader themes of women’s identity and empowerment across generations.
