Josephine Lorelle
Josephine Lorelle is a New Zealand textile designer and the founder of Studio Lorelle, the country’s first dedicated textile design studio. Known for her stunning use of colour and painterly, expressive style, Josephine’s work blends artistry with contemporary surface design — creating prints that are both evocative and commercially refined.
Her designs are sold internationally across New Zealand, Europe, Australia, Malaysia, India, and the United Kingdom, with clients spanning fashion, homeware, and interior design.
Deeply inspired by the natural world, Josephine’s collections often reference native flora, organic forms, and the rhythm of the landscape, interpreted through her distinctive artistic lens.
Through Studio Lorelle, Josephine continues to champion Antipodean creativity on the global stage, uniting artistic freedom, craftsmanship, and innovation in every design. She also regularly attends leading global textile design shows to showcase the studio’s latest collections.
