Celebrating my Crafted Utopia

‘Celebrating my Crafted Utopia’ is a womenswear collection with a knitwear focus, exploring the importance of crafting in communities and the tactility of craft, combining this with inspiration from 1980s prom nights. As a designer, I am incredibly hands on and love to engage in physical making processes, in particular the creation of knitted textiles. It is important for my work to have a sense of joy and quirkiness, which I explore through my playful silhouettes and detailing. Craftsmanship and sustainability are fundamental to my work, with my designs focusing on hand crafted finishings and details. I aspire to bring my passion for sustainability, knitwear and craftsmanship to future roles, while combining this with my interest in community inclusiveness.
