GRACE

Winning the Kingfisher Design Talent Award at New Designers 2017.

“ Ellie was selected by the judges for her skill, attention to detail and ability to present a commercially viable product. ”

Inspired by Scottish highlands and the rugged landscapes of Northern Europe, this collection was the exploration of fabric dyeing and hand drawn and digital sketches. Paying particular attention to craft to adopt a highly refined approach, coupled with a soft, naturalistic palette that epitomises low-key opulence.

Through vigorous and varied technical experimentation, dip-dyeing fabrics and collaging became a key element to my designs.
