Roisin McAtamney

Hailing from Scotland where she has studied fashion & textiles (Knit, Print and Weave) for over 9 years, Roisin is highly skilled & dedicated designer.

With a keen eye for colour, textures and pattern, she is always creating new, exciting and fresh garments & fabric designs.

With an HND in Fashion Design, a BA Hons in Design for Textiles (Knitwear) and now an MA in Digital Fashion, she is well on her way to establishing her self with in the fashion world.

Having just completed her Masters at London College of Fashion, Roisin is currently working as a freelance swatch designer and seeking to get her foot in the door of some well renowned fashion houses.

In her Final MA Collection Roisin has incorporated custom made Microsoft Tag's, which are a version of scannable barcodes. Each garment in her collection has it's own unique code and when scanned with the Microsoft Tag Reader App, a short fashion video of the piece will appear and play on your smart phone.
