Just heard from Miki introducing me to her line of streetwear, Marmalade Ho. Miki studied fashion design at Middlesex University and later went on to sell her appliqued t-shirts at Camden Market.

Things were painfully slow at first till I came up with Bye Bye Kitty; I was so pissed off with all the bloody Hello Kitty stuff in Camden. I like Hello Kitty, I always have done, and she’s aimed at people in a similar demographic to me anyway. It’s just that there were seas of Hello kitty, Pucca, Mashimoro etc. So as a little joke I came up with Bye Bye Kitty, the first was the ‘Electrocution’ Screen print. Next came ‘Hanging’. There were quite a few of them.

Shown above is the Helix Cat Face t-shirt which is available here. And in case you’re wondering how in the world did she come up with that name? Find out here.
