About Alice Palmer

Alice Palmer is a London based textile artist and knitwear designer, who pushes the boundaries within art, design and production. As well as creating several successful and innovative fashion collections shown in London, Paris, Tokyo and New York, and winning numerous awards including Textile Brand of the Year at the Scottish Fashion Awards 2013, Alice Palmer took part in the Young Masters exhibition in 2014. She has also shown her sculpture at the Schwartz Gallery, Hackney Wick, for three consecutive years in a group show called Allotments. Palmer draws inspiration from a diverse range of subjects: the illusionary and mathematical aesthetics of polyhedra and topology; the theories of Physics; the music of David Bowie and the style of Pop Art, to name but a few. Following completing a BA in Knitted Textiles at the Glasgow School of Art (1996-2000), her passion for furthering her knitting skills took her to London to study a Masters at the Royal College of Art (2005-07). At the Royal College of Art, Palmer specialised in Knitted Textiles, concentrating on developing unconventional ways of constructing knit.
