Graduate Collection:
Where The Wee Folk Wander
Where the Wee Folk Wonder is a bespoke children’s occasion-wear collection inspired by Irish folklore. Each piece weaves storytelling into design through intricate digital and hand embroidery, combining heritage craftsmanship with contemporary innovation. Designed to be cherished and passed down, the collection celebrates the enduring magic of Irish culture
Second year self-directed brief:
Dreaming of Daisy Chains
Daisy Chains explores the fragile bonds of girlhood, memory, and inherited emotion through textiles. Drawing on the innocence and impermanence of daisy chains, the work reflects on the quiet rituals of childhood and the delicate strength found in sisterhood and shared moments.
NEXT Live Project Brief:
Urban Viridescence
Urban Viridescence explores the quiet resilience of nature as it reclaims the built environment. Created in response to a live brief for NEXT, the group project blends the industrial textures of weathered architecture with the organic softness of regrowth. Through layered textile surfaces and thoughtful material choices, Urban Veridigris captures the beauty found where man-made structures and natural forces meet. As a result of this work, my group was awarded a placement with NEXT, recognising its innovative approach to surface design and storytelling.
