I am an experienced clothing designer originally from Cape Town now living in Scotland.  Since relocating I have dedicated myself to creating garments from repurposed, rescued and preloved textiles.  Some of these have been originally manufactured in the textile mills along the Hillfoots region of Clackmannanshire, where I now live. Each garment is aimed at transforming discarded fabrics into cherished treasures, thereby saving them from landfill. Where possible I love to enhance my designs with a traditional South African fabric called SHWESHWE which is known for it’s intricate prints and vibrant colours. By doing so I hope to introduce the beauty and diversity of African textiles to a broader audience..

In my creative process I carefully select textiles that are often overlooked or discarded, combining complimentary scrap fabric into unique items of clothing.  This approach promotes environmental sustainability and showcases the potential of upcycled materials. Every garment tells a story of transformation and renewal, reflecting a commitment to both quality and eco-conscious fashion.

My mission is to create fashion that is not only beautiful and functional but inspires others to consider the environmental impact of their clothing choices and see the value of what might otherwise be discarded.  Through my work I aim to make a difference, transforming the way we think about fashion and it’s role in the world, one garment at a time.
