There are some designers<\/a> that could have only emerged from London. Jylle Navarro is one of them.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Jylle<\/a><\/p>\n

Febrile, fertile London: the birthplace of many an eccentric designer or out-there fashion idea. Jylle Navarro, like many of her techno-coloured, rave-ready folk, exemplifies the capital’s best qualities when it comes to design: namely, its experimental, no-holds-barred approach and its willingness to get down and have a good time. We speak to the knitwear designer about the best city in the world.<\/p>\n

How do you think London has defined you as a fashion designer?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think with London it has both influenced my work as well as encouraged me to avoid the current trends and styles. With my larger more creative designs I don’t let it influence me but with pieces which I want people to buy and see as some they can wear themselves I try to think about what would work for them better.<\/p>\n

Where do you go for inspiration?<\/strong><\/p>\n

For my inspiration I usually go with what I see is influencing people now in the world and then develop it into a more creative idea. At the moment I am very interested by Bowie. It’s a very good time for him and he fits in well with my latest collection which is heavily influenced by symbolic alien icons.<\/p>\n

\"Jylle<\/a><\/p>\n

Who has been your favourite celebrity to dress or see your clothes on?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My favourite people to dress are McGaffE<\/a> and My Bad Sister. These girls are amazingly talented and excellent performers.<\/p>\n

Most played on your iTunes?<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the moment I’ve been listening to Bowie and Yeah Yeah Yeahs<\/a>‘ new stuff. Some Amanda Palmer and Evil Cowards.<\/p>\n

How did you become a fashion designer<\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I wanted to be a fashion designer since I was young so I kept going in that direction however my personal style and knit influence has only come about in the last few years.<\/p>\n

How do you construct all your pieces?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I mostly use a knit machine and hand sew together however I also do, knit, macrame and tassel by hand also. Depends on the piece.<\/p>\n

There seems to be a lot of engineering and experimentation involved.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes. I like think the process I use works which is to not completely know what the finished product will look like. I tend to change my ideas for a final garment halfway though making it.<\/p>\n

\"Jylle<\/a><\/p>\n

Tell me about how you get from concept to finished product? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I start by an influencing idea. I then put together whatever yarns and materials I can find that fits. I have an idea of what I want to make in my head so I start to make it but it usually develops very quickly. Once it’s knit I sew it together and add extras if needed.<\/p>\n

What are your favourite places to eat, hang out, go dancing in London?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m a big Sink the Pink<\/a> fan. Those girls know how to have a good time. And Cult Mountain is a cafe, shop and gallery. They have the best new designers and artists and the best coffee.<\/p>\n

What is your favourite street in London?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tough question. I really can’t think of a specific one. I just love all of London.<\/p>\n

Next thing you think will influence your next collection.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think I might got for a John Waters style freak and fetish collection.I’m thinking grown men in knitted baby bonnets.<\/p>\n

What do you plan on doing in the future?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I plan on creating a new print collection, dressing more performers, setting up an online shop, collaborating with other designers, and making some short videos.<\/p>\n
