RIVER & OCEANS

Her Bubble collection also draws inspiration from the magic of water. While diving in Borneo, she watched air bubbles dance to the surface, sparking her creative vision.
Additionally, her Siren collection is inspired by mythical allure of mermaids and the shimmering beauty of fish scales. Erin’s snorkelling adventures along the Devonshire coast have deepened this connection, as she draws inspiration from the underwater world she encounters.
