Johanne Kappel Anderson is an MA Fashion graduate from the Royal College of Art.
Magpies and the stories surrounding them inspired Johanne’s graduate womenswear collection ‘Raised like a Bird’.

She created a universe based on an imaginary life in a magpie’s nest. Fake jewellery, watches, a silver spoon, metal pieces, an old worn denim jacket, keys and candy sticks develop into prints, shapes and heavy beading. Elements such as a speckled bird egg, wooden bolts and the magpie’s black eye appear as details and print. The collection contains a mix of digital printed and hand painted silk, bleached and dyed denim, heavy beading and soft printed lycra.

Johanne has been selected as a finalist in ITS8 (International Talent Scout) taking place in Italy, July 2009.
