Background: Just graduated and obtained a 2:2. From a very early age i loved designing and making my own clothes. I travelled quite a bit to Italy to visit relatives and this has inspired me on the way continental women dressed -effortless glamour.My ambitions is to have my own label and become a recognised womenswear designer. My collection is inspired by photographer Helmut Newton and the elaborate event of the Masquerade Ball. From this I created dresses which are sexy and bold with an feminine edge.

"One of the runners up, Charlotte Lepre-Slater, also from Liverpool John Moores University designed a dress which hada wonderful Japanese design quality the skirt flowed beautifully" says Natasha Cowan.
