I've always had a fascination with pattern and the way the repetition of almost anything can create something beautiful or visually interesting.

 

I was born in Shoreditch, London, and spent my life there until my semi recent move to Glasgow. The house I grew up in was eclectic to say the least, and I was surrounded by a whirl of wonderful art, cushions, bedspreads, lampshades, curtains and many other creative delights. To me they were all magical, bold, playful and brimming with a unique vibrancy that gave each of them their own individual story. 

 

Inspired by this lifelong love of pattern, I signed up to a 3 year textile design course at Glasgow Clyde College. It was there that the bones of Dapper Alice were formed.

 

Since graduating, I have been focusing on growing Dapper Alice to be a brand and business that represents me, both creatively and ethically.

​

I am now lucky enough to run Dapper Alice full time.
