little ao, collaboration with Debbi Little

Debbi Little and Karen teamed up to create a small scale collection they called little ao.  Designer Debbi Little is well-known for her commitment to sustainability, particularly in her use of repurposed materials.

The collection featured a range of hand stitched camo pattern fabrics that were engineered from scraps of army surplus parachute materials and deadstock Gainsborough fabrics.

The Gainsborough scraps were overdyed using natural dyes to create a unique colour palette that perfectly complemented the army surplus materials.
