Final Collection

A Bunch of Flowers....
The collection consists of elegant and clean lines; taking its inspiration from nature,   the water colours of Monet and vintage fashion designs from the 1960s and 1970s. The designs reflect nature; the muted colours of spring and summer reflected in water, the mixing of pattern and texture.


The collection is designed for spring or early summer, featuring light-weight coats, structured dresses and mix and match skirts and tops. The combination of both weave and print were designed to complement each other; to form a ‘mix and match’ collection.


The printed pieces were influenced by the bright, bold patterns of the late 1960s and 1970s. The more structured designs of the early 1960s influenced the woven pieces as well as the more muted colours. For both the print and weave, art was a major influence: the woven pieces from shaded pencil sketches and the print from water colour paintings.
