JONATHAN SAUNDERS

Scottish born print designer Jonathan Saunders graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 1999 with a BA in Printed Textiles, going on to graduate from Central Saint Martin's in 2002 with an MA with distinction in Printed Textiles, subsequently winning him the Lancome Colour Awards 2002. Saunders coordinates designing his own label alongside consulting for some of the largest fashion houses in Europe. In September 2005 he presented his fifth on schedule show at London Fashion Week.

Saunders uses traditional silk screening techniques, developing the concept of engineering prints around pattern pieces. In effect each garment has its own specifically designed print rather that one standard print being used throughout a collection. Saunders uses up to twenty silk screens per design and will have as many as twenty prints within one collection, thus individualizing his pieces and creating a visually exciting collection.
