THE DESIGNER

While studying on the University of Westminster, BA Fashion course, Manimekala Fuller gained international experience in the fashion industry. Upon graduation, her love for colour and pattern as a form of wearable expression led her to establish her namesake brand. She has been nominated for both design and entrepreneurship awards, and recently made her London Fashion Week debut.

ABOUT THE BRAND

Manimekala creates unique, contemporary luxury fashion by combining design with a meaningful social mission. The brand works in partnership with social enterprises, making products fairly and responsibly. From original hand drawings and paintings, they use both traditional techniques and digital technologies, combining print and embroidery to create stunning effects. They also address sustainability through a “zero waste” approach, refashioning leftover materials into one-off pieces.
