S2 E6. Cabrini Roy: Debuting at London Fashion Week & Monetising your Craft with British-Filipina designer, Cabrini Roy

Designer to Designer - A podcast by The Entry Platform

Categories:

This week we are joined by Cabrini Roy, founder of a London based womenswear label which shares the same name. Cabrini’s British and Filipina heritage is heavily influenced in her minimalist and hand-crafted designs, and her slow-fashion ethos is at the heart of her brand. Her love for fashion came about when she was just 9 years old, where she first started to design, and four years later she turned her talent into a reality. Her mother was her muse growing up and inspired her to develop her passion further through her education. She began her journey studying fashion and textiles at the University for the Creative Arts which then led her to the London College of Fashion, where she studied fashion design and womenswear. In this episode we discuss how she set-up Cabrini Roy without having the business tools and experience as well as giving us an insight into the day-in-the-life of running her brand. Cabrini’s challenges and experiences inspired her to set up a community orientated programme where she teaches basic pattern cutting, ways to communicate with manufacturers and most importantly finding joy in passing down knowledge. This educational podcast is all about not limiting yourself to just one thing. Why do that when you can do them all? Trust me, you’ll want to add this one to the list!
