ELLA TARDREW
BIO:
With a talent for fabric manipulation and creating new textures, Ella's design philosophy is centred around linear, touch and versatility. Creating trans-seasonal clothing that is conscious of its impact on the earth. She hopes to be a designer who looks beyond the stereotypical standards of beauty and empowers all. Ella is an Australian Fashion Designer, who has participated in Melbourne Fashion Week and is also currently undergoing a Graduate Certificate too. She is a passionate and determined person, who is constantly wanting to learn more and gain new experiences.
DESIGN STATEMENT:
Ella's ‘Embrace the Unknown’ collection aims to capture the emotion of fear and instead empower the wearer to find beauty in the unknown. Each piece is intended to be an armour of protection to shield the wearer and this is expressed through sharp tailoring, tartan textures, repurposed clothing and loud prints.
