My Process
Idea, structure, then execution, with nothing skipped along the way.
01 — Research & Reference
Every project starts with looking outward - fabric, texture, colour, cultural reference, the small details that end up shaping a whole collection. This is where instinct meets research.
02 — Concept & Detail
Ideas get specific here. Loose references become real garment decisions - silhouette, construction detail, fabric weight - captured in notes and flats before a single sample is cut.
03 — Range Building
The individual pieces become a collection. Every silhouette is considered against the range as a whole - colour story, fabric mix, how each piece works alongside the next.
04 — Sampling & Realisation
Concept becomes product. This is the least glamorous and most important stage - fit, finish, fabric hand-feel, getting each piece right before it's signed off.
05 — Campaign & Storytelling
Once the collection exists, it needs a world to live in. Styling, casting, photography direction and the language that tells people what the collection is actually about.
06 — Delivery
The finished work, out in the world - ready for press, stockists and customers. Nothing leaves this stage until it's something I'd stand behind.
