About

Craft defined
by precision

I'm a Manchester-based technical fashion designer and pattern maker with a strong foundation across womenswear and menswear. My work spans from architectural tailoring to commercial runway production — including multiple seasons at New York and London Fashion Weeks with THEO, and three seasons of costume development for Apple TV's Foundation.

I work fluently across flat pattern cutting, draping, toiling, full technical specification, and 3D digital garment development in CLO 3D. My approach is defined by structural clarity, sensitivity to material behaviour, and the conviction that great pattern cutting is invisible — present only in how a garment moves and holds its form.

Three seasons of costume development for Apple TV's Foundation, filmed in Prague. Progressed from pattern cutting for extras (Season 2) to designing, drafting, and fitting garments for principal cast (Season 4).

Work included pattern drafting, draping, fabric and leather manipulation, fittings with principal cast members, and delivering 30+ intricate fantasy garments per season under tight broadcast deadlines. Collaborated daily with international costume design teams from the UK and US.
