What does “Designing” mean to you?
It’s all I’ve ever wanted to do and it completes me as a person.
What do you think good design is?
Good design is wearable and comfortable!

All women! I want to appeal to all age women,
I think that I make classic fashion with an edge

What does “Designing” mean to you?
I have a deep fascination with communication – the ways in which we circulate
meaning within culture – I think I has something to do with my mum being a sociologist!
Design is all about communicating culture.
In today’s society, so much of our identity
(as individual’s and collective groups) is dictated by the way
in which we represent things, the way we consume things, produce things and also,
how we regulate them.
What do you think good design is?
There are not necessarily steadfast rules.
I think I like it best when people break commonly accepted rules
(composition, colour harmony, etc), and make it actually work.
That is how I would define DESIGN GENIUS.
What kind of customers do you want to share your designs with? And why?
I love people who are more interested in what clothes say, than how they look.
I like clothes that communicate.
That’s why I like designing and having my own fabrics printed so much.
