Hannah Hughes is a woven textiles specialist who has a passion for sustainability and slow fashion as well as a keen interest in menswear design. Scandalous Heritage explores the importance of learning from traditional making, believing that looking back is key to finding a sustainable future, for textiles, looking forward. Inspired by Nottingham’s own, Lord Byron and his heritage, the bespoke menswear collection is a playful, audacious, and unique take on classic woven patterns and structures such as tartan and herringbone. They push boundaries but have a personal touch to re-connect the consumer to their clothes. With a fascination of processes, moving forward she hopes to work within woven textile production to develop her knowledge and understanding of the processes and explore how these traditional methods have withstood the test of time and what we can learn from them moving forward.
