I design womenswear for my label “ten30” focusing on simple shapes with an emphasis on surface textiles, mainly print and embroidery. Prints are designed in house and teamed with some of the best fabrics in Scotland, from pure new lambswool to Scottish roe deer leather, where possible, everything is made in Scotland, this is important to me. I love collaborative work, and this year I have a lot of projects lined up, including some menswear, accessories, jewellery and exhibitions.

I am based in the newly opened Grey Wolf Studios, the building used to be offices but has recently been renovated and turned into artists studios. The place houses a fantastic mix of creative talent, including sculpture, painting, music, graphic design and film, which is so inspiring to my own work. Being able to talk over ideas with other artists from different disciplines really pushes my own work and my own development as a designer.

I am currently finishing a new collection, working on a look for the From Scotland With Love show in New York as well as designing for Harris Tweed Hebrides and working on a piece for the upcoming Analogue Social PAPER exhibition.

This week, Ironbbratz Studios took over Central Station, posting featured work and blogs. This, their last post, is about Black Cherry Studio.

Black Cherry Studio is a Textile Print Design Studio set up by two graduates from The Glasgow School of Art. They design and create beautiful exclusive Print Designs for the Womenswear Fashion Market keeping their worldwide client base in mind. Their print designs are created for clothing, accessories, swimwear and lingerie and are produced using traditional hand painting techniques along with cutting edge computer technology. This, coupled with inspiration drawn from current catwalk trends, allows them to create a product which is one of a kind and appeals to everyone from high end to high street companies.
