After graduating from the Western Australian School of Art, Design and Media, Marie established the women’s wear label One Fell Swoop. After leaving the label in 2009, she has been working for Zomp Shoes in product development. Creating a number of shoes for Beyond Garment, Marie turned to traditional bespoke shoemaking in opposition to the mass production found in the fashion world today. The shoes have been crafted by hand with simple tools, referencing the traditions of an earlier time.
