My S/S12-13 collection is titled ‘Visions of Symmetry’ and was inspired by Art Deco buildings, specifically the work of M.C Escher. I have always been drawn to the symmetrical harmony of this style of architecture’s balance between colour and detail.

For the past 6 months, I’ve been developing 7 original digital prints in conjunction with Helm, a new graphic design agency. These were created from a series of photographic images, and the printed pieces will be worked back with the silk and wool fabrications that round out the collection.

There’s no doubt print will be a strong feature throughout Fashion Week, but I also predict simple, classic silhouettes will be a highlight.

This will be our first involvement in fashion week, so as yet I don’t have any. We have managed to build a real ‘A team’ and we are very excited for the experience.

We are looking forward to a positive response from stockists nationally and internationally, as well as the media, I hope.

First and foremost, sleep! Then it’s straight onto working on new ideas for the An Ode to No One Winter 2012 collection.
