Hollie gained an MA in Fashion Footwear from Cordwainers, London College of Fashion. A QEST Scholarship enabled her to complete the course and focus on the design and making of a collection of eight pairs of shoes. Hollie’s work is inspired by ad hoc principles; she takes everyday objects and discarded materials to create high end footwear and has included laminated newspapers and leather composite within her designs.
Hollie is currently working as a Senior Footwear Designer at Hunter Boot Ltd.
