Butterfly Bloom is a collection of textile designs for a fashion context, looking specifically at runway and haute couture for inspiration. Hand rendered in watercolour, the motifs are influenced by nature, featuring various florals alongside butterflies in a vibrant and modern colour palette. Digitally printed onto silk crepe de chine and silk charmeuse the collection of designs come together in a self-made dress that embodies maximalism, pattern clashing and having fun with fashion.
