Placement Season...

So as majority are aware  London Fashion week is rapidly approaching and a couple weeks before fashion students in their 2nd year become interns.

I sought after a knitwear placement with two very different knitwear labels; Alice Palmer and Leutton Postle.

Alice Palmer is a established knitwear designer, who garments ooze luxury, style and high fashion through the use of constructed machine knitting and dynamic colour selections.

Alice Palmer is my inspiration, it would be an amazing accomplishment to learn from and also work for her.

To those unaware of alice Palmer please take a look!!

Leutton Postle are a dynamic knitwear duo (Jenny Postle & Sam Leutton) with a fairly new knitwear label. They are colourful and there aesthetic is quirky, fashionable knitwear that appeals to people who love bold, vibrant colour palettes and play.
