I interviewed Kirsty Ward at her artistic studio in Camden, London on the 6th March 2013 with fellow photographer Lyndon March for an article for Exalt Fashion Magazine.
Kirsty Ward's Jewellery envisages a bold, contemporary and almost futuristic approach to decorative jewellery which has become the signature mark for her brand. By re-inventing the use of coloured aluminium, Kirsty has managed to touch upon the tribal tendencies that exist within the exposure of structured symmetry.
The collection has not had to rely upon an outer source for production, instead the pieces are all cut and hand made within the studio itself which allows Kirsty to create up to 250-350 pieces per season.
Kirsty Ward's womenswear collection presents a modern and sleek representation of the simplicity of fashion. The use of soft, neutral colours are complimented by the structured asymmetric shapes of the garments. The design simplicity of Kirsty Ward's womenswear allows the clothing to become an elegant backdrop for the embellished jewellery to model upon.

The success Kirsty Ward has achieved in such a short period of time from establishing
her brand in 2o11 to the ever-growing success she is achieving today - has been nothing more than deserved. The most desirable aspect of the Kirsty Ward brand is the desire to
beautify something unappealing. By using the metallic materials that she has and seeing the influence of washer-women aprons from her apron shaped garments, it seems evident the talent Kirsty Ward has to beautify almost anything which has resulted in captivating the fashion world.
Below are my own personal photographs;
