With dreams of opening a shop one day, a Nottingham woman has spoken out about how she’s making ‘slow fashion worth waiting for’ from home. Vivienne Pearsons uses African wax fabrics and materials from India to make completely unique clothes.
Fifty-year-old Vivienne lives in Attenborough and said she has always been creative. During lockdown, Vivienne’s hours were reduced from her full time job so she decided to start making clothes.
Her brand Orange Erin is home to individually crafted dresses and kimonos made from fabrics sourced from around the world. She cites her influences as Barbara Hulanicki, Bridget Riley and Frida Khalo.
