Most recently being awarded Britain's Top Designer 2016 and with internationally published collections the past five years has been a momentous testament to all the hard-work, the exploration of vision and successful lines to date. Although in comparison we are small in stature we are big in impact - Hellavagirl, give ‘em hell.Helens innovate, creative design process are the bones of the brand. Often cutting straight into cloth. Helen’s creations are born and developed organically after the feel of the collection is set.
