Work method
"The starting point is to consider that each
garment must have a powerful identity.
Then comes inspiration, lots of different fabrics
and books. Felicity doesnt create using the pc ordrawing sketches, she starts by draping like the
first time she was regarded as a real designer: it
was while working at Alberta Ferretti when she
was given carte blanche with an invitation to
express her own creativity.

Style keywords
"If I had to describe my collections using
keywords, Id say: hand-dyed and printed, shapes
building, fabric manipulation." Distancing herself
from mainstream trends, the designer plays withfabrics and colours creating drapes that look and
feel very natural but are in fact the result of a
meticulous process.

Inspiration
"The S/S 2012 collection is inspired by Victorian ladies and
is injected with tribal elements. Broadly speaking, her work
in inspired by the arts and anthropology: before tribal
decorations, she used the lines and colours typical of the
masks from Central America.
