Lost in Translation

Divergent creative activities and how my family have engaged with creativity has provided the inspiration behind my collection. Delving into my ancestral past of how we enjoy working creatively with our hands has influenced the choice of fabrics, dyeing techniques and complex construction of the product range. The collection is important to me as it holds within it, the stories of the past, of my past. This collection celebrates femininity with beautifully detailed and carefully shaped corsets, constructed with fabric dyed with natural dyes, and also recycled ties, previously referred to as a masculine symbol of power. A collection to make women feel beautiful in, that celebrates all shapes and sizes and conveys a vibrant feminine energy.
