I currently work part-time at The School of Historical Dress where I recently did research and illustration for two new editions of the ‘Patterns of Fashion’ books, both published December 2023. I currently also work freelancing for textile print studios such as the Amanda Kelly studio as well as freelancing from my studio in Soho in the fashion and costume industries.
