Karla & Cecile: Textile creation

Textile creator Cecile Feilchenfeldt based in France & German fellow Karla Huff

 

Swiss textile designer Cecile has worked in Paris for over 20 years where she runs a small studio developing knitted fabrics for haute couture fashion houses. She learned knitting from her grandmother when she was young and specialised in woven materials at the Zurich University of the Arts.

 

As an aspiring knitwear designer, Karla is passionate about bringing two-dimensional surfaces to life through the craft of textile construction. She draws inspiration from her dual Croatian-German upbringing. With a background in multidisciplinary design, she offers a distinctive perspective to her craft.
