Fiona Paxton
About
Fiona Paxton has within a year of setting up her own line of accessories created a distinctive and global profile her peers can only dream of.
The trained textiles designer launched her eponymous label in 2008, creating striking hand-beaded necklaces and bracelets in geometric patterns.
Having graduated from the Royal College of Art in 1992 with a distinction in Textiles Design, Fiona became a driving force behind the fashion scenes. Having worked in New York, London and Bangkok, she consulted for various fashion companies such as Armani, Chloe, Moschino and Michiko Koshino.
The Look
As a globetrotter Fiona has fused her love for Indian artisanship with the iconography of the British punk era she grew up in, conceptual Japanese fashion of the 80s and the German Bauhaus movement. The London-based designer has found the right mix of eye-catching newness whilst retaining the individuality of each hand- crafted piece, creating a winning alternative to the ubiquitous British high-street.
