MY BRAND PURPOSE
-
To design garments that are unique, purposeful and sustainable.
-
To create quality clothing that supports garment longevity.
-
To produce garments that are ethically made.
MY AESTHETIC
I love classic silhouettes and adding a bit of quirk or edginess to it. I love mixing street and couture in my ready-to-wear collections. I do not specialise in a certain craft and I do not box myself in a certain style. I love different fabric textures and mixing them up. I love making my own prints and patterns. I also love beading and hand sewing and creating my own applique to add that personal touch and point of difference.
MY DESIGN VALUES
Garments should also be functional and purposeful, aside from being stylish and innovative.
Garments should be made with quality for longevity.
Garments should be made ethically, considering the human and environmental impact of each production.ç
Garment should be made with love and patience.
