Who I am
I am a freelance print designer with over 12 years experience designing for womenswear. By keeping up-to-date with the latest catwalk and retail trends, I create beautiful and contemporary print designs for a range of clients and products.
As well as having worked in-house creating many top-selling designs from florals to animal prints and geometrics to abstracts, I have also worked for several London print studios and sold designs to various brands across the world including H&M, Nike, Victoria’s Secret, River Island, Gap and Calvin Klein.
My goal is to work with brands who are making conscious decisions about where and how their clothing is made. It is important to me to have an emphasis on the ethical treatment of textile and garment workers as well as more environmentally friendly processes and materials.
How I work
I create my designs using a range of media and techniques depending on the look I want to achieve, from hand painting and drawing to creating digital elements on my iPad.
I can create one-off prints or build full ranges with a variety of designs that work together in a collection. Understanding each brand, their aesthetic and their customer is a really important part of the design process. Whether I’m creating one print or many, it’s about designing something that people will want to wear and ultimately feel good in.
As a designer I draw inspiration from all sorts of places. As well as obvious sources such as runway shows, trend-forecasting sites and fashion stores. I also take inspiration from my daily life, whether it’s an art exhibition I’ve visited or simply some flowers I’ve spotted in a garden. I also love to travel and often find inspiration in the architecture, fashion and culture of other countries.
