Louise Gray

Louise Gray is a hand embroiderer who first studied at The Glasgow School of Art and went on to graduate with an MA from Central Saint Martins College in London. Immediately following her graduation she was selected by Fashion East, and showed three seasons there.

Louise Gray first showcased with On|Off in February 2010 at Victoria House. On|Off continued to support her with a show in February 2011. Additionally On|Off helped to gain financial sponsorship for Louise Gray over 2 seasons, with cotton USA.

Louise has spent the last 5 seasons building a label based on brightly hued, boldly textured garments whose shapes are simple and where movement and embellishment take center stage. Employing a wide range of materials nothing is quite what it seems in Gray's work. Contrast is key and Gray reworks traditional stitches and embroidery techniques to create modern folk details.
