This collection was highly influenced by my<br />

heritage, Nepal. I looked into traditional craftweaving<br />

and took it in a modern approach to<br />

create the pieces. Through the heritage, I was<br />

drawn into using bold colours and patterns.<br />

The pieces are interactive as it can be altered<br />

between textile samples and also as an<br />

accessorise. The collection is also about<br />

exploring materials that aren’t just fabric. It’s all<br />

about pushing the boundary by experimenting<br />

with ropes, different weight of yarn and<br />

materials that aren’t usually used for “fashion”. It<br />

is all about problem solving, innovating and<br />

offering something new to fashion.<br />

The techniques that have be used in this<br />

collection purely focuses on hand rendered<br />

making the pieces delicate and exclusive. The<br />

collection looks into weaving, macramé, hand<br />

beading, hand-made fringes and tassels.<br />

As we live in the era of fast paced fashion, I<br />

wanted to shows that we should appreciate<br />

fashion by slowing down the production and<br />

creating pieces that takes time but are<br />

beautifully made and can be appreciated by its<br />

craft, rather than the piece being easily<br />

replaced.<br />
