"I moved from Rome to Milan about six months ago to start working at a law firm after graduating in late 2018. It's a very transformative period of my life - I feel a bit like a little seed emerging through the soil.

I am also a passionate knitter, sewer, embroiderer, crocheter and maker in general. I have always loved combining the things I love into one - if I fall in love with a song, a painting or a flower I instantly start thinking about how I can incorporate it into a piece of embroidery or clothing. It's also a way of remembering a particular moment in my life."

"I love a project, my life has always evolved around projects. I start many and finish some which I’m fine with. I’m not a perfectionist so that helps me finish things. I like making beautiful things that heal. I think beauty heals."

"For myself, style is a visual expression of who I am. I was painfully shy growing up, and while I'm not nearly as shy now that I'm an adult, I think I learned how to use my clothing as a way to convey my personality to others without having to speak.

It's also very personal because it's deeply intertwined with how I feel about myself and how I want to feel as I occupy space in the world around me. "

"Style is such a personal thing and it can be hard to navigate what works for you at certain stages of life, or at least the last 10 years have felt like that for me.

As women we don't set out in the morning thinking 'oh how can I dress for other people today', we're just living our lives wearing whatever we want to & should be left alone regardless of what we are wearing! "

“I am a mischief maker and risk taker.
I work in a urban university as a librarian, outside of work I play ukulele, crochet, write haiku and stitch...

I'm a middle-aged woman who has finally realised that my body is beautiful. I want everyday to be a celebration of women of all shapes and sizes. I refuse to be invisible or marginalised because of my age and gender.”

"For me, I feel like I make decisions on what I wear mostly based on how I feel inside that day. We all contain multitudes, so sometimes I like to dress in a more masculine or feminine way; playing dress ups with myself that relate to things that I’m interested in culturally or sub-culturally. ".

"A hairdresser.

I am the daughter of a generational grazier farmer and a wild child mother who in her youth ran around the streets of Blacktown detonating mailboxes.

I’m also known as a photographer and a writer. I enjoy producing photographs and words that sing the earth and its real earthlings.

Residing in Austinmer on the escarpment, the bones and ghosts of an old coal mine that has now been redefined by the continuous act of nature's regeneration - Just me, my lover and a box of bees."
