Cold Heart is a collection inspired by nature and the ever changing landscape and temporal conditions; the ability of snow to transform objects and make beautiful the everyday. This theme influenced fabric choices and helped me to establish an understated tonal colour palate. I explored natural forms through photography, both in the countryside and museums, and translated this imagery into shapes that inspired my silhouettes.
Designed for occasional wear, the garments include heavily embellished beading and unconventional shapes supported with fishing line. I explored the cuts within the collection through extensive toiling to create asymmetry, spiral seaming and a detachable collar.
I saw some of this collection at "New Designers" your work was the one I was attracted to, its absoulutely beautiful:)
