Inspired by her passion for creativity, travel, nature, art, architecture, fashion (contemporary and vintage), and music of past and present generation.

Each piece she hand designs and produces  in the  UK using vintage fabrics fused with reclaimed textiles, and materials such as mixed metals-oxidized silver, gold and gunmetal and the introduction of colourful elements- pearls, beads, rhinestones, ribbon, fringe, rope giving  the collection a sense of modernity with a hint of the past.
