NEWS| Phoebe English for Dover Street Market New York


Our previous Merit Award winner Phoebe English has been invited to re-imagine the ground floor event space of Dover Street Market in New York City. 

Displaying a selection of pieces from English's AW14 collection, the installation delves into the themes of chaos, control, gravity and temporality - all elements which feed and have fed into her design aesthetic. With white collapsed cliffs and rails of her suspended pieces, the Dover Street Market setting she has created is as dynamic as it is effective.

"I wanted to convey a light, surreal and poetic shopping environment, a small piece of drama to come across whilst wandering around the incredible emporium that is Dover Street Market New York," English told AnOther Magazine in a recent interview.

English was awarded our Merit Award during the AW12 season and has since gone from strength to strength. Now, she has appeared in a range of international publications, on platforms among the likes of SHOWstudio and is stocked in Dover Street Market.
