Esoteric Beauty

I specialise in womenswear and creative pattern cutting. Growing up in Cornwall I’ve always been inspired by nature and flora so incorporating this into my ideas has always been important to me. My graduate collection is inspired by natural forms and flora, whilst also experimenting with different textures. I have focussed on deconstructing forms, identifying outlines transferred to panels and seams. Utilising a mix of fabrics, I’ve added volume using gathers and tucks over curves to exaggerate certain parts of the garments and body. My design aesthetic is both elegant and classic, it combines modern ideas and outlines with a graceful feel. My future goal is to design unique stunning pieces for red carpet events whilst developing my use of pattern cutting creatively.
