Collaborate with others | Creative Conversations | Ep.5 | Alice Selwood Textile Designer

IN THIS VIDEO: Pull up a chair because it's the next episode in our creative conversations series- episode 5. You may also like to pop this on in the background and listen whilst you work or on your lunch break. Let me now introduce you to Alice. She is is a Textile Designer who specialises in creating elegantly, detailed embroidery and embellishment, for luxury fashion and interiors. She is inspired by strong organic and structural forms, pushing the boundaries of traditional embroidery and beading to create sharp sophisticated designs. Based in a studio on a small farm in Cornwall, she is a strong believer in ‘keeping it local’ and sources all her production and fabrics within the UK. We chat about her business, how she started, being a freelancer and what support there is out there, the benefits of collaborating with others, and how it's important to find something you enjoy and pursue it. Alice's TOP TIPS : If you're feeling stuck go collaborate with someone and do what makes you happy! Grab your favourite beverage and join me for this fascinating creative chat.
