About Michelle
Hi I'm Michelle - The Fashion Expert a fashion designer, consultant and startup mentor. I'm not someone who just teaches the theory, I've lived it too for 20+ years.
My passion is making the fashion industry accessible, giving people the skills they need to further their career and lifting the velvet rope on an often elite industry.
I've been working with small boutique brands and startup brands for the last 10 years as The Fashion Expert helping them to design, manufacture and launch a collection and prior to that I worked as a senior-level multi-product fashion designer in several head office roles including Arcadia Group in London - Wallis, Miss Selfridge, Topshop.
I've seen the fashion industry from most angles and I'm here to share my 20+ years experience and knowledge with you.
During Covid I guest lectured online for fashion students at London fashion college and also host a podcast called The Fashion Startup.

Let's start with a free call to find out what you need. Every lesson is individually tailored to you and your current position. We will look at where you are, where you want to be and make a plan of how to get there, a roadmap for your own success. I can help you with all aspects of the fashion industry and your career even if you are at the beginning without any experience. Some examples of the topics you may need help with are ...
*Inspiration & style - finding your own individual DNA
*Portfolio preparation work - expanding your style and creativity through sketchbooks
*Designing a collection - what to choose in your lineup
*Design development - technical drawing, experimenting with toiles and draping, sampling, fabric selections
*Practical help with Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator
*Finding and working with manufacturers, pattern cutters or sample machinists
*Photoshoots and catwalk shows - finding models, photographers and stylists
*Starting a fashion brand from scratch - practical elements to starting a business
Whatever you need help with just ask and we can create something unique for your individual circumstances.
My approach is super friendly, there are no wrong answers or silly questions. I want you to walk away from these lessons feeling encouraged, empowered and excited.
I work with people from all levels of experience, age and backgrounds, you do not need to be at a fashion college or university, so if you are hoping to set up your own fashion label and just don't know how let me guide you through the whole process.

Perfect! Really quick response and thoughtful ideas. I asked Michelle for advice since my dress was not fitting well and she came up with many different ideas and demonstrated how to fix the issues. Really helpful and pleasant manner.

I invited Michelle to be an Industry Guest Speaker to Fashion Design students at Glasgow Clyde College. Michelle gave a confident and professional online presentation to the students which was informative and inspiring. Michelle spoke to 3 different class groups about 'The Power of Digital Illustration in Fashion Design' alongside a digital presentation which showcased images and video exemplars.
Michelle was happy to answer student questions at the end too which was appreciated.
Overall, Michelle gave an insightful presentation that would easily translate in to a lesson in a teaching environment.
I have know Michelle for some 20 years, working in different companies together as fashion designers so I know Michelle to be knowledgeable, reliable and trust-worthy as well as being a highly creative and talented fashion designer.
