Latest Collection

End Of The Pier

End Of The Pier’ is a contemporary Spring / Summer 2015 womenswear capsule collection that explores the fun and freedom of the 1950’s; the war was over it was time to celebrate! Rock ‘n’ Roll dances, Hollywood dinners and the population flocking to the seaside to relax and push their faces through the ever-so popular, humorous, freshly painted peep-boards. Collages formulated from inspirational images allow digitally printed cottons to echo the idea of freely hand - painted designs, which are realised in simple oversized silhouettes. Elements of applique and a determined focus on hand - painted details pop brightly in colours good enough to eat; primary red, yellow and blue with a red orange and a classic green amongst a bright white and jet black that emphasise the classic details. Ultimately my collection explores the boundaries between art and clothing made for a fun-loving woman with an artistic soul.
