Linda Jackson (designer)

[5] She studied fashion and design at the Emily McPherson College (now part of RMIT),[3] and photography in Melbourne.

She visited workshops and collecting the fashions of Parisian couturiers, studying how to cut on the bias, drape and other intricacies of hand-made clothing such as hand-rolled silk hems.

[6] Jackson favoured quality fabrics such as tafetta, crepe de chine, chiffon and silk georgette.

Jackson said of their creative partnership: We have tried to capture the pride we felt for Australia when we returned in the 1970s and the way its unique environment has inspired us over the years.

Jenny and I have always shared a love for colour, vibrancy, flora, fauna and the bush, and we’ve aimed to bring this to life in our designs.
