Is a designer and fashion illustrator who began her career working as an assistant to John Galliano, where she did print designs, t-shirts and artwork for invitations to shows. Her illustrative work has been used for the print on clothes.

Her idiosyncratic work, is highly rooted in drawing, where she uses traditional media like a pilot pen, pencil and charcoal that she "Always feels comfortable with." She enjoys collage and multi layering of things. She treats the designs as pictures that should stand alone as a drawing. "I lose interest if i start putting things into repeat." Her preferred fabrics to print on is chiffon or georgette, because it reflects the multi layering of her artwork.

I like her originality of the illustrations and the fun, eccentric style of her work.
