Alexandra’s Redress Design Award collection, ‘Cotswold Remnants’, is inspired by the designer’s hometown in the Cotswolds and its heritage of blanket making. In response to the closure of a local mill, Alexandra salvaged faulty tweed blankets and loom offcuts, transforming the undyed and naturally dyed British wool fabrics into biodegradable garments designed for longevity through craftsmanship and durability. Loom offcuts are integrated as textural details, such as decorative fringes along trousers and jacket, and pouches integrated at the hips of a bodice.
