   "I am an imaginative designer with a flair for creative design solutions that are both unique and innovative. Currently based in London, I have been studying Fashion for the past five years and am currently doing an MA at Kingston University.
When designing I take inspiration from abstract images and forms, looking at the shapes within these to inform my garment shapes and silhouettes.
My work is mainly derived from the transition of these shapes from flat form to 3D and how they work both on and around the body. From this I create pieces that blur the lines between clothing, product and body structure design, utilizing specific design methodologies, but with a very experimental, playful approach.
I have an eye for originality and innovation, and strive to achieve this within my work, creating unusual pieces, with bold silhouettes and forms.
With a strong focus on the concept of multifunctional and interchangeable clothing which is a running theme throughout my work. Currently, I am exploring concepts of play and puzzles, focusing on the simplicity of shape and form with a minimalist edge."
