My collection explores masculinity through a combination of military references and sequin print. I have also been developing construction techniques which combine traditional tailoring construction with heat forming to form shoulder shapes without seams.

For me, being able to play with my own wardrobe which has become a big inspiration for my final collection. I have learnt the skills to make my own clothes, which are often a lot brighter and more patterned than things I could buy on the high street and cross over into my design work.
I guess it would be finding a way to make my love of making clothes for myself pay off, perhaps with my own brand. Or working within a small brand. Somewhere hot, probably abroad.
