Alice Palmer has a background in textiles, graduating from Glasgow School of Art in 2000, and set up a business in 2001. Based in Glasgow, she designed fashion accessories and sold world-wide to shops, galleries and specialist boutiques. With a passion for making garments, she moved to London to study for a Masters at the Royal College of Art (2005-07). Specialising in Knitted Textiles, she was able to concentrate on developing unconventional ways of constructing knit for fashion. The outcome is a strong, unique aesthetic and at the same time, the production methods are friendly to the environment, as they require no fabric waste.
