Louise’s collection transforms detritus into high-fashion, sourcing materials from Queen Victoria Market's waste and discarded oyster farm remnants.
It consists of a range of garments made from everything oyster. The creative collection celebrates raw texture and sustainability, giving new life to overlooked materials and blending environmental consciousness with bold, imaginative designs.
Louise has collaborated with makers Jill Johanson and Lauren De Betue.
