Hello world!

After leaving Goldsmiths university in 2007 I felt overwhelmed. I was doing the odd fashion internship here and there, trying to get on the ladder to an ethical clothing company but it seemed as though that without financial backing it was near on impossible. So I decided to try and do something on my own. Freetown, Sierra Leone is a place that I had grown familiar with and rather adore. I had spent the last 3 years travelling out to Freetown for various holidays as my parents were based out there. Slowly I began to notice material shops or a tailors on every street corner. Not like any other material shop I had seen, these had fabrics over flowing there shelves and door ways, desperately trying to keep the suns rays from fading the colours and prints. The fabrics are beautiful and extremely radiant, they radiate this sense of strength and vibrancy. The prints are detailed and powerful and once this is conjured up into an edgy design it gives the wearer a sense of power and individualism.
