My magical Fantasy Island - Ibiza


There is a place that kick starts my creativity like nowhere else in the world, the magical island 'Ibiza'.
People from all over the globe come together and remember each other like yesterday.

Peace and love and all that is Hippy-bohemian, mixed with an electric energy - I find it difficult
explaining what Ibiza is to me, so I try my best to interpret the energy, beauty and happiness in my designs.

This is my fantasy world, its an incredible melting pot where music, art and fashion is experimented. Its also a place of bohemian vintage and the latest modern dance fashions.

To combine the two gives an amazing effect. Old cottons with flashes of neon yellow and metals.


My dresses began here. I created a whole wardrobe in 2006 just for myself, I received wonderful comments and a fashion house copied one of my designs a year after photographing me, to which my mother was angry as I didn't gain any credit but I thought it was amazing and a good reason to carry on and believe in myself and my ideas.
In 2007 I repeated the same idea, flying to Tokyo and New York I gained more inspiration,
I packed everything I had been working on for 6 months into one suitcase...sadly.... the suitcase went missing at the airport... BUT THAT DID NOT STOP ME!

For the last year I have been working at Central Saint Martins School of Fashion to bring back a bigger badder Collection for 2009...
