Johanne Mills at KabiriGold Chain and Black Glass Bead Bracelet
£75.00 By Johanne MillsView details | London based designer Johanne Mills graduated from the Royal College of Art with an MA in Mixed Media Textiles. Specialising in textiles while working in ceramics, sculpture and photography, Johanne’s entire graduation collection was bought by Donna Karan.
Following this she worked for five years as a creative director and project manager for Donna Karan. Alongside this Johanne consulted on textiles and accessories for a range of other clients including Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Luella, Hugo Boss and Mathew Williamson.
Johanne has also worked as an art director and stylist on projects for Selfridges, Burberry, Issey Miyake and Bulgari and for magazines such as W, Japanese Vogue, View On Colour, The New York Times magazine and Viewpoint.
In 2003 she began a valuable partnership with designer Giles Deacon, it was during this collaboration that Johanne first got her taste of designing jewellery. Using quartz and amethyst crystals to embellish the clothes, she developed this into a jewellery collection.
Now working on her own collection she continues with the theme of voluminous and natural forms. Johanne uses an unusual range of materials which are sourced from all over the world. The current products include wood, rope, Swarovski crystal, cork, rock crystal, agate, meteorites and leather. Johanne draws her inspiration from traditional hand crafted techniques such as marquetry and knot work, combined to create a unique collection of pieces. |
