Redress Design Award 2015/16 Finalist

Meet The Designer

I am against the stigma that sustainable garments need to be plain, practical or simple. I want to be a sustainable fashion designer to raise awareness and change the way people think about consumption and waste.

Redress Design Award Collection

For her collection, Annie was inspired by Matisse’s cut-out technique and applied this process by reintegrating scraps from luxury garments into her collection through collage. She combined zero-waste and up-cycling design techniques using secondhand and end-of- roll textiles, sourced from textile stores, markets and charity shops in the UK.
