Feeling good to get back to work for the first time in my new studio, which is still under-going renovations, I’m currently developing a new collection which is an extension of my Hive paper dress that I had constructed and exhibited last year. I’m beginning with re-drafting a tunic tank top, and making a sample (which I always do in my size, because hey, why not) in charcoal bamboo jersey. I love this jersey, it feels so silky and cooling against the skin, and delivers a savouring experience when I slip into it. I always push to source quality fabrics for this reason, but mostly because beautiful textiles contribute to my initial inspirations and how I am able to visualize a collection in its entirety. Coming up next is bamboo twill suiting it’s incredible, unlike any twill I have ever touched.
