Alice Timmis MA RCA is an established weaver and artisan manufacturer working with London’s most leading and experimental fashion designers to develop and produce their unique fabrics. Her textiles sell internationally to brands. These include Chanel, Calvin Klein, Tsumori Chisato, ASHISH, Richard Malone, Matty Bovan, Tata Naka and Sadie Williams.

Inspired by the application of media in artist’s paintings, Alice applies radical finishing techniques (brushing, painting, embroidery, fil coupè etc ) to the surface of her textiles to capture a ‘gestural presence’. She designs woven textiles on her hand loom and works with industrial mills in Italy to produce her fabrics on a larger scale. These will often be hand finished back in Alice’s London studio – merging craft and the machine.

The mission of her studio, based at Cockpit Arts in Deptford, is to create quality and statement textiles through a process of handiwork that doesn’t get lost in the stages of clothing creation.
