A womenswear designer specialising in Macrame, Crochet and Natural Dyeing. With sustainability at the core of the design process, I use up-cycled and organic naturally dyed fabrics to achieve a rustic, authentic aesthetic. My designs are free flowing and lightweight achieving a natural look. I have a passion for textiles which I carry on through to my work while using intricate techniques. I am very driven with my work and take great inspiration from my natural surroundings. I have grown up with a passion for horses and have always loved the outdoors and the FREEDOM it offers.

Latest Collection

Gypsy soul

“My collection is based around the life of the Romany Gypsy’s, taking inspiration from their free spirited souls and love for nature. With sustainability at the core of the design process, I use naturally dyed fabrics to achieve a rustic, aesthetic. Inspired by the Gypsy way of 'making something from nothing', I have sourced materials I have around me to create unique designs. My fabric is free flowing and lightweight, achieving a relaxed, simplistic silhouette. My designs are very teXtile based, using tEchniques such as macrame and crochet to create BEAUTIFULLY handcrafteD designs.
