Rosie Evans is the eponymous ‘High Fantasy’ luxury fashion label, based in Brighton Uk Rosie creates a world of anachronistic historically inspired fashion, following the ethical practise of upcycling old textiles and materials. ​

Sustainability and the ethos of recycling runs through the heart of our brand and Rosie works using ‘Fabrics with a past’. 1950s hand embroidered table cloths, old silk curtains and patchwork scrap fabric make up the bulk of our collections. As well as working to save fabric waste, we also collects plastic fruit packaging tape from the Cardiff food market to use as boning for all the corsets and dresses; deadstock shoe laces are also reused for fastenings. 

The designs themselves fit the everyday fantasyland that Rosie has created: a cross between historical costume, wearable 00s fashion, ball gowns sewn from table clothes and jeans, Elizabethan style corset bodices made from tea towels and pillowcases, and patchworked wrap micro mini skirts. Inspired by her home land of South Wales and the poets and artists that hail from there, each piece has a sense of anarchic heritage - a flirty and humorous look at culture of the past.
