 What is the concept of your label?
  Whilst the main body of each collection is made up of new fabrics, inspiration is often derived from garments of the past. Pieces become enhanced through ageing & imperfection & collections focus on texture, shape & inticate seaming detail. They work with & against the body to create a crisp & distinctive look with each piece individually worked and designed down to the finest detail.
 What message do your creations send?
  Classic design & innovation with a strong awareness of hand crafted individuality & strong identity.
