'La Papillon Rouge'

Kirie-lea Cussen

​

18, designer born in Ipswich, Essex living in the seaside town of Southend.
All I have ever wanted to do is something creative.

​

My Mum & Nan my rocks, my best friends and my number one fans, if it wasn't for them. I wouldn't be showing my work today.

​

In 2010 it was the eye-opener when I won BBC Blast 'Your label' and became one of the youngest designers to show at LFW and sponsored by Vauxhall Fashion scout.

​

I ask my regularly "I've been having some weird thoughts lately, Like is any of this for real or not?"

​

I can't believe the luck I've had so far and on that  day I strived to always work to the best of my abilty, to never give up and keep dreaming.
