When and how have you decided to launch your activity?

We launched the brand in 2015. After gaining industry experience while working for various fashion companies in London, I decided to launch my own brand Anisha Parmar London specialising in jewellery & accessories. It had always been a dream to have my own creative business and when the time was right I made it happen.

What is your background?

I studied textiles and went on to do my masters in Fashion Artefact at London College of Fashion where I created more of sculptural body pieces, thereafter went on to specialise in jewellery and accessories where a lot of my methodologies I use are self taught.

How did this passion start?

From when I was a young girl, I was always creative and loved painting, this passion grew into fashion design, textiles and making sculptural pieces for the body.

Where does your inspiration come from?

The inspiration came from my masters collection: Authorised Identity. It explored my family’s migrant story from India, East Africa to Britain and its manifestation on body through extension of form and shadows created by large wood and metal structures. I wanted to convey these emotions and cultural cross overs in wearable jewellery & adornment.
