Recent graduate specialising in visual merchandising in the fashion sector

Internships and Degree Work

Window display at Thomas Pink which was installed during my internship.
I assisted this installation by creating guidelines for stores on how to install this window, ordered elements for each window, shipped parts needed for installation to overseas stores and was also part of the team during installation at the flagship and Canary Wharf stores. This all gave me vital visual merchandising experience that can directly translate into a full visual merchandising role.


Visual merchandising task in within a team in Selfridges, LondonI was fortunate enough to have the opportunity through university to arrange a handbag and accessories space in Selfridges. Within a time limit I had to think about space, detail and the use of 3 to create a fresh layout for Kate Spade and Vivienne Westwood. This gave me practice for in store display as well as allowing me to experiment with different products.


During my final year of studies I created a sketch-up model of my inclusive swimwear brand 'Suima''s pop up shop. I found a potential retail space to rent in Brighton and created plans for the lay out of the store, mannequins and feature installations all while considering the cost for a small business as well as practicality of props for a pop up shop that would need to be removed and reinstalled elsewhere throughout the year.
