Open Studios: Barbara Wheeler

Barbara Wheeler creates garments and accessories from natural fibres, botanical prints and dyes. She encourage audiences to be inspired and to enjoy the wearability of natural fibres as a second skin.

Her sustainable fashion designs are offered to challenge the way we think about clothes. Barbara encourages people to make mindful purchases and promotes long use, repair and re-use of garments and textiles.

Her studio operates as a salon and slow fashion workroom and visitors are warmly welcomed.
