Lea has made multiple different pieces for me, both to specific brief and with totally open creative brief, including my wedding dress as very short notice! She is technically capable of anything whilst also bringing her sublime sense of style, contemporary elegance and immaculate tailoring to make pieces that last forever. She exudes warmth, professionalism and would make the most wonderful tutor, her students would feel so lucky to have her!
Léa is an exceptional designer and tutor, and I couldn’t recommend her more highly. She has such an inspiring eye for colour, form and detail, drawing on fascinating cultural and artistic references in her work.
Her years of industry experience and training at world-class colleges make her guidance truly invaluable, but it’s her supportive and encouraging style that makes learning with her such a positive experience.

She has always been amazingly talented and inspirational wherever she’s been. More importantly, she is passionate, patient and thoughtful in her approach which has served her tremendously well in all her roles. I would highly recommend Léa as a tutor.
