Prints & Patterns are in this S/S 08.


When at 'Elle Collections' one of the sections that I worked on was for there trends section... and a trend that "was hot on the s/s08 catwalk" was prints and patterns. Florals was a huge part of this and above is detail from a section I worked on.

☞ About the Clients:


Hetty Rose Ltd:
I met Henrietta, a.k.a. Hetty, at London Fashion Week 07, and was very much interested in her concept behind the Hetty Rose brand. It is based on a theory of re-using and re-working vintage materials in a creative and sustainable way, hand making shoes to fit. Hetty Rose is a passionate bespoke footwear company with a clear brand philosophy; to make an environmental statement in an aesthetically pleasing way.

Che Camille:

The concept of Che Camille is based around an imaginary French Aunt who lives in a loft in NYC. As a child you visited her house and were fascinated by the characters dropping in for tea. Her house was decorated with captivating art and design objects. Che Camille is a House of Style.
