Projects
Wearable Art Mandurah 2022
Define Femininity, for Wearable Art Mandurah 2022 was a gown made by sculpting and moulding leather, and silk fibre felting, upcycling silk fibres and leather scraps, a more sustainable way to create. A celebration of femininity through textile design and manipulation.
International Student Design Competition 2022 Finalist
REINVENT explores the use of leather to promote slow and sustainable fashion. Inspired by modular design, the dress is customisable by the wearer, enabling it to be worn for multiple occasions. With all seams replaced with zips, it features insertable panels which can change the size of the dress, allowing the wearer to change the dress in accordance with the way their body changes in their lifetime. The hardware used allows the wearer to add different necklines, sleeves and other extensions to the dress, sparking their creativity and making the dress even more loveable.
Breakfast at Tiffany's Collaborative Photoshoot
This was a collaborative project working with local WA creatives. I directed the photoshoot and created the gown inspired by Audrey Hepburn's iconic look. It was a celebration of an icon and inspired by a modern take on the iconic film, Breakfast at Tiffany's.
Blooms Collaborative Photoshoot
Blooms was another collaborative project with WA creatives, inspired by the blossoming flowers at S&R Orchard in WA. I designed and created the dresses with feminine elements and a flare of fun.
VULVA 2021 Graduate Collection
This collection seeks to celebrate and destigmatise biological female body parts in a way that stimulates conversation between the wearer and the viewers. Using silk fabrics and silicone art, the collection is inviting, sensual and ultimately feminine.
IOTA 2021 Internship
Through my work placement, I worked with an internship team developing my skills in Fashion Event Management. Together, we organised the Fashion Runway show for the 2021 Indian Ocean Craft Triennial, 'Curiosity and Rituals of the Everyday.'
The Body Project
Through the body project, I developed a process of moulding shapes using silicone. The medium helped me to convey the body in a way that is inviting to viewers whilst till being somewhat anatomically accurate.
Pussy Power Screen Printed Collection
The Pussy Power Collection was a screen printed project which emphasised the power, beauty and importance of biological female body parts, commenting on societal views and expectations.
Creative Illustration
My unique, hand created illustrations use a range of mediums including watercolour, marker pens, ink and beading. They too explore feminine power and sensuality like many of my other projects.
The Kombucha Project 2020
Given the criteria of creating garments for future Martians, IÂ grew and developed my own kombucha leather to create a Martian wedding dress which the wearer could grow and then let biodegrade back into soil, all with minimal impact on their environment.
Custom Dresses
I have created a range of custom ball dresses, cocktail dresses and wedding dresses for cliental. My process responds to the client's vision and brings it to life with my unique, feminine aesthetic.
