In each of her projects, Amy Penny uses strong themes, often revolving around issues of feminism, and aims to bring a sense of empowerment to the wearer. Amy Penny’s bold, red, graduate collection entitled ‘I Never Looked Good In Red…’ was inspired by the novel The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood.
