Striped Harmony/ An Accessory Collection Inspired by Bauhaus & Memphis This project is a celebration of natural materials through a bold, tactile collection of accessories that draw inspiration from the precision of Bauhaus minimalism and the joyful rebellion of the Memphis Group. Each piece is carefully handcrafted using 100% natural fibres – including cotton and wool, chosen for their structural versatility. The collection explores the interplay between form and colour through graphic stripes and architectural shapes. Surfaces are left honest and raw, highlighting the intrinsic beauty of natural fibres, while playful colour blocking pays homage to the expressive geometry of postmodern design. My aim is to demonstrate that radical, future-facing design can emerge from nature itself, without compromising function or joy.

Working with our partners at Arts Thread to develop lifelong learning and career opportunities for students of fashion and design. Our partnership provides the opportunity to compete on a world stage, participate in industry led workshops, set up an outstanding portfolio and gain access to the resources that will kickstart careers in fashion and design.
