My Research
<\/strong>I am currently undertaking a PhD entitled: \u2018Parallel Stories: Reconstructing men\u2019s dress history through an archaeology of pattern making and garment construction\u2019.\u00a0This object-based study aims to draw and record conclusions about the provenance and construction processes employed by cutters and manufacturers, after personally\u00a0examining\u00a0historical garment artefacts.<\/p>

My Interests
<\/strong>For me, great fashion clothing is about attention to detail not only in its design, but also in its construction and styling. I am inspired by vintage clothing and am passionate about using this reference to produce original, innovative and contemporary designs. My design approach combines observational drawing skills to extract and record the cut, construction and fabrication in detail. I like to maintain a hands-on approach to teaching and my knowledge of pattern-cutting and manufacturing allows me to help students deliver products true to their original fashion concept.<\/p>

Areas of Expertise
<\/strong>An experienced fashion educator and industry practitioner, my area of expertise is in garment design, pattern-cutting and product development. My specialisms are men\u2019s semi-formal, casualwear and sportswear.<\/p>

My Industrial Experience
<\/strong>Craig Green, Le Chameau, North Sails, Nigel Cabourn,Barbour, Ted Baker, Goodhood Store London, Viberg Boot Company, Manufactum, Alexander Boyd, Intrepid Apparel, Jitsie.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
