EGYPTIAN COTTONIt was an eco- community in the heart of the Egyptian countryside that ignited my interest in Egyptian cotton producers. They asked me to to work with them. I create garments which I hope are long lasting, pieces you will never throw away as they are made from one of the most beautiful fibres in the world that has a protected DNA and unrivalled heritage. The Egyptians love their cotton so much its infectious! I love it too. What better fibre to wear next to your skin in Summer

My interest in a career in fashion at the age of 4 whilst playing in our fabric cupboard at home and watching my grandma and mother dressmaking. After studying Fashion Design and Print at St. Martin's I worked for Kenzo in Paris, I was then head hunted by Moschino in Milan. It was in Milan I launched my own label footwear brand with Italian partners. The collection was distributed to Japan as well as stores in The UK, The US and Ireland for a period of 5 years until the factory eventually closed.
