The Bite Magazine - Spring/Summer 2026 - Issue 39

bitefashion Malikah Karim Malikah Karim’s ‘Touch Grass’ collection is derived from the idea of becoming more in touch with nature’s spiritual side, igniting mindfulness and peace with one- self. It simultaneously clashed with man’s capitalisation of the natural world with the destructive nature of indus- trialising nature’s key elements. The garments are made solely from repurposed denim and employ environmen- tally friendly techniques. @malikistudio malikahk24@gmail.com Milly Hoare Hiraeth is a Welsh word for a feeling of longing for something unattainable. For her ‘FMP’ collection, Milly Hoare linked this feeling to the long-term grief of losing her dad at 13 years old. Taking the supersti- tion of “a white feather appears when a loved one is near”, real feathers were featured within the fabrics, layering chiffon and her digitally printed organza over the top. @milllydesigns millyhoare@hotmail.com Alanna Doyle The theme of Alanna Doyle’s ‘FamilyThreads’ collec- tion was an emotional connection with family, which helped her to be inspired by her great-grandfather working in the East End of London in his clothing factory. “His love for fashion has been passed on in my garments featured on the catwalk,” she said. @alannadoyle.fashion alannadoyle14@gmail.com Calum Burton Calum Burton’s ‘I’m a Boy, Duh?’ collection makes a mockery of society’s masculine stereo- types by exaggerating proportions and integrat- ing feminine styles. The oversized jackets’ bold patterns and skirts and shorts elevate the mock- ery intended by this outrageous designer. @calumburton_fashionn calum.burton2003@gmail.com
