Karen Nicol

Soon we are having a guest speaker at Uni to come and talk about the industry and her work. Her name is Karen Nicol, so I thought I would have a good look at her work to familiarize myself. She works a lot with embroidery and applique and even creates lace. Her work is very pretty and descriptive and is even used in clothing. Her CV spans from very independent work to collaborations with big fashion designers such as Chanel and Julien Macdonald. I love how from a distance you wouldn't know that some of her work is even fabric.
Here are some examples of her work from her website.
