Amber May’s graduate collection was inspired by bodily kinesthetic intelligence. The ability to construct physical objects which evolve through the repetitive hand movement fascinated her. Led by the creativity of ‘Hands’, she explored physical evidence of this whilst travelling in Bangkok, Thailand. Captivated by architectural patterns and hand crafted applique tiled surfaces, it was an immediate source of inspiration for the collection.




After analysing details, colours, patterns and hand constructed techniques, Amber May’s fashion accessories developed into a versatile and vibrant display. The attention to detail within technicality and material choice is evident in this ornate and evolving collection.
