Fleur Oakes in conversation with Roger Kneebone
Fleur Oakes is one of the UK\u2019s leading needle lace makers. We discuss her path from art school to fashion design, and from being a bespoke corset-maker to becoming entranced by the beauty and precision of lace. Fleur\u2019s work is inspired by natural forms, and now she is lace-maker in residence in the vascular surgery unit at St Mary\u2019s Hospital in London.
