DESIGNER PROFILE

Graduating in Fashion & Textile Design after completing a BA major Art history, Cassandra worked as a hand beader in the bridal industry while simultaneously she began creating unique one off gowns for private orders and sample pieces in which to develop and refine her skill using high quality textiles, custom embroideries and bespoke finishes.

WHAT IS IN THE NAME?

Guipurean (pronounced gur-pure-ean)

A fusion from Cassandra’s fascination for the ancient Egyptian world and French history.

The name, Guipurean, was created to elude to mystery, enchantment and grandeur

From the lace ‘guipure’, intricate in design, it has its origins in history as a luxury textile.

Guipure, is derived from old French in the 19th century, “guiper” meaning to cover with silk, a luxury fibre that will always stand for the test of time for its opulent appeal.
