FASHION MAIDEN
Fashion Maiden is a unique handmade clothing brand, that I’ve ran for just over 1 year. I’ve always been interested in fashion, and after finishing an apprenticeship and weeks of debating what to do, I went out on my own and gave it a go. This was so scary but with the help of my mum and stepdad I did it! What started as me making a few skirts a week has turned into a small clothing brand that people recognise everywhere! Running this business allows me to be my most creative self, taking lots of inspo from the 60s/70s ‘Peace and Love’ era, as well as modern day brands like Moschino and Christian Cowen. Most importantly, I try and use Fashion Maiden to help others feel good about themselves, making clothes that are inclusive to all shapes and sizes, and have the option to be customised to completely suit you!

OLIVER JUDE CLOTHING
Oliver is a 14 year old autistic boy from St Helens.
After not getting the support he needed in school, he was names as a 'naughty and problematic' child, which obviously totally goes against the needs of a child under the special educational needs department.
His school then didn't know how to deal with him and just thought of the easiest way they could deal with me which was exclusion. Every Friday his mum got a phone call, 'he is excluded until further notice' This did happen for about 3-6 months. But overall he did lose out on 2 full years of education. In his spare time he started to design T shirts in his bedroom.
He now has his own clothing brand which is called Oliver Jude Clothing. After all the negativity he went through, he decided that he had to tell the world that you are going to reach the light at the end of your tunnel no matter how long it takes.
