⭐️ SUNDAY TIMES STYLE MAGAZINE ⭐️
Last month, an email landed in my inbox that made me nearly fall off my chair…journalist from The Sunday Times Style wanted to interview me for a piece on teen confidence.
I’ve read Style magazine since I was 17 years old, so having our work featured in one of the UK’s most prestigious fashion magazines feels surreal. It also feels deeply full circle.
As a teenager, I had zero confidence. I was bullied badly, never felt “cool,” and spent years feeling invisible in what I wore.
Today, when my team and I work with women in their 40s and 50s, the phrase we hear most often is: “I only wish I’d known this when I was a teen.”
That’s why working with young people matters so much to us. In an era dominated by TikTok algorithms, micro-trends, and relentless peer pressure, helping teens discover what truly lights them up, is life changing.
The sooner we teach young people that style is about self-expression, the safer and more empowering the world becomes for women of all ages.
A huge thank you to Rachel Richardson and the Sunday Times Style team for spotlighting this conversation and an even bigger thank you for asking me to contribute.
