Rhi Fowler Print Design is a UK-based fashion print practice led by Rhi Fowler, specialising in hand-painted prints for swimwear and womenswear. Combining a print design and buying background, Fowler develops thoughtfully curated mini collections designed to translate cleanly from concept to finished garment.

Hand-painted animal prints (leopard/ikat blends) and florals (ditsy repeats, rose/peony bouquets) developed for swimwear and womenswear, alongside painterly abstract motifs and vintage floral reference material.

Selected patterns confirm a hand-painted gouache and ink practice spanning several registers: painterly geometric sun/abstract motifs in warm yellow and red tones; leopard-print ikat-style blends in ochre and rust (seen applied to both a halterneck dress and a swimsuit); looser ink-wash animal-print texture studies; hand-painted rose and peony bouquet florals; a small-scale hand-painted ditsy floral repeat; a vintage-referencing mood board citing archival Laura Ashley ditsy florals directly; and a sheet of tattoo-flash-style illustrations (swallow, rose, tiger, heart lock). The animal-print and floral registers read as the most developed toward finished repeats, with the tattoo-flash sheet appearing to function as reference/inspiration material alongside the core collection.

The The portfolio shows the leopard-ikat print applied to both a resort-style swimsuit and a formal halterneck dress, directly evidencing womenswear and swimwear application.

Fowler works in gouache and ink/watercolour, developing artwork by hand before translating it into repeat - paint tubes, mixing dishes, and works-in-progress are visible across several selected patterns. Reference and mood material, including archival Laura Ashley ditsy florals, informs colour and motif direction. Designs are developed in mini collections rather than as single one-off prints.

No specific clients are named. Fowler's background spans both print design and buying, informing a commercially grounded approach to product and market fit.
