EMMA COOK
Cook is not afraid to take risks surrounding her designs, “There's no middle ground. It's either disgusting. Or it works." this is not how one might expect a designer to describe her own work. However, while the work in question looks similar to the sort a fashionably minded young woman might like to wear, it's also full of the kind of bizarre and at times even twisted humour that Cook has made her own.  Instead, the most delicately pretty, hand-made lace and lace prints rub shoulders with tie-dyed latex are replaced with dandelion clocks and shuttlecocks with leather and fringing and much more.

Emma’s fashion education began at Brighton University where she completed a degree in fashion, textiles and business studies. Cook designs clothes, now as always, heavily influenced by her friends, finding both their different characters and body shapes inspiring. 

Cook returns to the London Fashion Week catwalk this season after an absence of a year – spent designing her collection but also looking after her young baby, she admits "we've gone a bit crazy".
