Alexandra is a graduating designer from RMIT’s Master of Fashion (Design). She is a designer for social enterprise ‘The Fabric Social’ and founder of independent label DIS/OWNED. Throughout her Masters, Alexandra’s research focused on the use of garments as both a subject and material for design, with interests in sustainable consumption. DIS/OWNED explores the materiality and value of consumer byproducts, reintroducing undesirable materials into the fashion system alongside a humorous and playful social critique. DIS/OWNED’s first full series is a study of lingerie, exploring feminine rites of passage and the social reservations we have towards our undergarments.
