Profile
I am a PhD student investigating visual and tactile perceptions of fashion products.
I have a First Class BA (Hons) in Textile Design from the University of Leeds with a woven textiles specialism (with funding from the Society of Dyers and Colourists). I advanced my textiles knowledge in the digital domain researching colour forecasting for virtual fashion; this experience laid a future-focused foundation to explore the characterisation and perception of fashion products for the increasingly digital fashion industry.
I recently worked part-time as a weave technician before entering my second year of PhD study.
Research interests
My current research interests include:
- Visual-tactile and tactile perception of textiles
- Garment characterisation
- Computer graphics for digital fashion
- Virtual and extended reality
Qualifications
- BA (Hons) Textile Design [woven textiles], University of Leeds
