Hi I'm Katie,
I am 3rd year Textile Design student specializing in surface print Studying at Nottingham Trent University. My work centers around illustration aiming to capture a sense narrative, character and charm. I usually design for a fashion application, creating prints for expressive and playful garments. Working across a variety of mediums, I initiate my design process through experimental drawing and painting, before bring this imagery into Photoshop and manipulating this, turning these into repeats or placements. Sustainability is at the heart of my practice as it is my belief that the issues the fashion industry faces can be inventively addressed in a way that does not compromising on creativity. I have experience working at varying market levels from collection creating high end collections like "The Observed" and "Magpie Eyes" as well as having helped out at two London runway shows for sustainable designers VIN + OMI. At a commercial high street level I have completed work experience at NEXT menswear department after winning the NEXT industry Brief.
