ABOUT SYLKENBIRD

Hi I'm Phoenix! I love food, pretty things and dancing.

​

I've been sewing on and off since I was a little girl, mostly figuring things out by trial and error. I love playing dress-up and learning to sew has given me the ability to take an idea out of my imagination and make it a reality!

In 2020 I studied a Diploma of Costume for Performance and in 2021 I will be combining my love of fashion, science and the environment in a Bachelor of Sustainable Innovation (Fashion).

I was raised as a vegetarian and my mum was a fantastic cook so I always loved plant-based food. I went vegan a couple of years ago after watching the movie "Cowspiracy". Although the transition was sometimes difficult, I now find it mostly easy and enjoyable to eat vegan. Just like sewing, I mostly cook by experimentation and I'm excited about sharing some of my favourite meals.
