I’m a fashion design student at Nottingham Trent University with a passion for womenswear, especially event and occasion dressing. I love designing dresses that create a sense of fantasy and tell a deeper story. My biggest inspiration was my fashion and textiles tutor, who sadly passed away in 2023. Her guidance shaped my journey and this connection inspired my final year collection—a sentimental, bespoke bridal line that blends traditional femininity with dark, romantic twists. It explores loss and grief through nature, reflecting beauty, memory, and transformation. I hope to work in a bridal boutique to refine my pattern cutting and garment construction skills, with the dream of one day opening my own space, offering unique, meaningful pieces and a truly personal experience to every client.
