"The Beauty of the Ocean..."
T H E B E A U T Y O F T H E O C E A N
Designing with the inspiration drawn from the depths of the sea is a journey into a mesmerizing world teeming with life and beauty. Every ripple, every creature beneath the surface becomes a muse for creativity. From the graceful dance of seaweed to the vibrant hues of coral reefs, the sea offers a rich tapestry of inspiration.
It's a celebration of the mysterious allure of underwater life, where elegance meets the organic. The play of light filtering through the water, the intricate patterns of marine life, and the ever-flowing currents—all become elements to weave into designs. The textures, the colors, and the graceful movements influence each piece, creating a collection that mirrors the enchanting diversity found beneath the waves.
In this underwater odyssey, the design process becomes a dance with the sea's inhabitants—merging the fluidity of water with the timeless elegance of design. From the delicate sway of seagrass to the majestic presence of marine creatures, every nuance is an opportunity to craft something extraordinary.
The sea, with its boundless depths, serves as an endless well of inspiration, inviting exploration into the unknown. It's not just about fashion; it's about capturing the essence of a world hidden from our daily view, bringing the magic of the sea to the surface through the artistry of design. It's a tribute to all the beautiful beings that call the sea home, an ode to the wonders that live beneath the surface and an invitation to wear the poetry of the ocean.

The Entire Collection
"The title inspired by comes from my love of travel, different locations, cultures and exploring beautiful places across Europe, the romance and adventure and discovery, propelling my creative nature and thirst for creating unique bridal wear pieces"
The starting point for this collection was sourcing fabrics that reminded me of those places I visited, then onto playing with tulle, draping, curling and layering textured flowers and other motifs, layering other fabrics or embellishments onto contrasting textures, giving the design life and interests.

The title 'Like a Bird' encapsulates the essence of liberating a bird in the vast expanse of nature, allowing it to revel in the glory of its existence. This concept draws inspiration from the profound lyrics of Miley Cyrus's song, where the phrase 'catching the wind' resonates deeply, emphasizing the inherent power of nature and the beings that inhabit it.
The imagery of a bird soaring freely, effortlessly carried by the wind, became a powerful muse, urging me to delve into a design ethos rooted in freedom. Much like a bird navigating the open skies, this exploration led to a design philosophy that embraces fluidity, liberation, and the untamed beauty found in nature.
'Like a Bird' is not just a title; it's a guiding principle that shapes the creative process. It's an invitation to break free from conventional constraints and explore design in a way that mirrors the graceful flight of a bird—unburdened, unrestricted, and in harmony with the elements.
In essence, it's a celebration of the inherent connection between nature and design, where the spirit of a bird becomes a metaphor for the uninhibited, boundless creativity that can take flight when inspired by the wonders of the world. 'Like a Bird' is not merely a collection; it's a journey into the liberating realms of design, guided by the winds of inspiration and the innate beauty of existence

"The title 'Like a Bird' reflects the idea of freeing a bird in the glory of nature and existence. A quote from the Miley Syrus song 'Like a Bird', catching the wind' really stuck in my head about the power of nature and beings that exist in nature. The idea of a bird flying and letting the wind carry it along really inspired me to explore a more freeing way to design.
The starting point for this collection was the looseness of sketching on the model template, free and feathery movements. I had quite clear ideas of how another nature inspired collection would reflect that, for example 'Shadow' is a clear reflection of it's inspiration. The shadow of the trees and flowers on the concrete through the glaring sun and 'Breeze' the independency of flowers being caught and blown in the breeze.
