PARTICIPATORY SPORT FOR CRAFT ARTISTS
Icelandic fashion designer Anita Hirlekar
Icelandic designer Anita Hirlekar is a graduate from Central Saint Martins, and based in London.
Gaining experience at Christian Dior Couture as well as Diane Von Furstenberg, Hirlekar gained valuable industry experience. Fascinated by traditional craft techniques, Anita creates a poetic but modern collection through hand crafted fabrics.
Working with traditional nuno felting, she incorporates unprecedented large swathes of draped fabric alongside crushed and pleated fabrications and lace inserts to create voluminous statement pieces.
