About Me

I am a Fashion/Textile Designer and Felt Maker. Just before Christmas 2006 I had a high profile fashion show at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London which was very successful.I graduated from Central St Martins with a BA Hon in Fashion/Print in 2001.Since graduating I have been teaching a Dali short course which I devised called Hand made fabrics for fashion for the past 5 years at St. Martins.I started my own label and have been working steadily to build the label.I am a specialised fashion/textile designer, my preferred mediums are handmade felts, hand knits, screen printing and intricate fabric treatments for both garments and interiors.My speciality is seamless felted coats and shoes as well as interesting knits.Alot of my designs are one off's. The idea is to enjoy our clothes again and to have truly original pieces that you know nobody else owns.There is no greater luxury than to have something specially made for you and that is exactly what I do, couture...All garments shown in the photos above have been designed by Melaniezine that includes fabrics. Photography by Paula Harvey.Aside from my work I also love going out to: dinner with friends, going to clubs, Listening to live music and visiting galleries and museums.
