On episode #21 of Fashion Originators, I chatted with Martin White, one of the founders behind Crescent Trading --THE best place to buy luxury fashion fabrics. 

A fashion industry fixture for the last 25 years, Crescent Trading supplies fabric for television, film and theatre companies alongside legendary designers like Christopher Raeburn, Vivienne Westwood and the young Alexander McQueen. In addition to their prestigious history, Phillip and Martin are also passionate about  GIVING back to the London fashion and textile scene. Whether it’s through student sponsorships or interviews like today, their focus on sharing knowledge is something I aspire towards myself. 

On the episode, Martin and I discuss the founding of Crescent trading, the importance of fashion students, the principles of building a successful fashion business, and what YOU need to know about fabric.  I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed doing it!

On episode #22 of Fashion Originators, I chat with the founder of Black Neon Digital Podcast, Jody Muter-Hamilton. 

After founding luxury swimwear brand, BLACK NEON, in 2008, Jodi has since kicked ass in tech, working for the UK’s most innovative mobile messaging platform Novastone, and creating a fashion messaging App in 2014, which later became a white label solution for larger retailers. With over 20 years experience in fashion retail, management, marketing & PR, she also consults for fashion business who wanna kill it in the industry. 

During the show, we chat all about Jody's consulting work, background and her podcast. Additionally, we also delve into a discussion on the future of fashion podcasting -- and why we need more people in the space.

On episode #23 of Fashion Originators, I chat with the founder of Find Your Intern, THE fashion intern platform, Jasmine MacPhee.

After realizing that an internship-exclusive, modern, digitally-native, community-driven platform didn’t exist (HOW), Jasmine created Find Your Intern to fill this gap.

During the show, we chat all about Jasmine's background at fashion publications such as Cosmopolitan and Harpers Bazaar, and how to navigate the oversaturated world of fashion internships (as both a business or an applicant).

On episode #24 of Fashion Originators, I spoke with Anabel Maldonado, the founder of The Psychology of Fashion. 

Specializing in fashion psychology, Anabel has contributed to publications such as The Business of Fashion and Marie Claire. Alongside contributing to other publications, Anabel was also the Editor-in-Chief of CoutureLab.com. 

Very recently, Anabel has founded a new platform - The Psychology of Fashion – which explores why we wear what we do, and the relationships between emotions, personality and aesthetic – using psychology as her lens for analysis. 

During our chat, we focused on building your brand as a freelancer, and the psychology that drives our industry.
