“Made to make your heart flutter, to lovingly watch over you, keep you safe, hold your hand, pass on through future generations…”
BIOGRAPHY
Alice grew up in a creative environment in Somerset, where a love of treasure hunting, theatre, and costume led her to train in fashion design. She later spent nine years in Paris, working in the fashion houses of designers including John Galliano and Sonia Rykiel. There, she developed the sensitivity to texture and crafted embellishment that defines her work today. Returning to Somerset, Alice now creates her work from her studio in Frome, where she brings together forgotten fabrics, trinkets, and treasures to create cherished companions and future heirlooms.
Each handcrafted piece is inspired by nature, dreams, and imagination, and created to spark joy, wonder, and a sense of connection.
Her work is an invitation to tap into the playful kaleidoscope of childhood imagination, even as adults.
Alice's work has been commissioned by designers and private patrons worldwide, and exhibited in galleries in Paris, London, and Somerset.
Ongoing partnerships include Harrods and Fortnum & Mason.
