As one founder put it:
I cannot express enough how invaluable Nat has been to building my dream brand!
She has gotten me from idea - to having my brand ready for sale - I still cant believe it! Not only is she reliable, fast, professional, but an absolute joy to work with!
I could not have done this without her - and if I did, theres no way I would have done it in this time frame and probably wasted a lot of money.
Nat feels like a business partner as she really goes above and beyond and cares a lot about her work and this shows by the attention to detail to my brand and me. Thanks for everything Nat you are a gem!

Frequently Asked Questions
01.
What kind of budget do I need to have in place before we start?
You should have enough budget to cover initial sampling, fabric sourcing, design work, packaging and your bulk production run. While exact costs depend on your product range, I recommend minimum £15k. I can help guide you on estimated costs during our initial strategy session.
02.
How long does the process usually take?
Each brand is different, but most clients work with me for between 6 - 9 months to get to bulk production stage. Some might take a little longer depending on the complexity of their collection and production needs.
03.
Do I need a design or fashion background to start?
No, you don’t need to be a designer or have prior fashion experience. I work with entrepreneurs at all stages, and in fact most don't have prior fashion experience, just determination. My role is to bridge the gap between your vision and the technical side of launching a fashion brand.
04.
What if I want to launch a small collection?
That’s absolutely fine. Whether you want to launch a capsule collection or a full range, I'll tailor the approach to suit your goals and capacity.
05.
Can you help with sustainable sourcing and production?
Yes, sustainability is at the heart of everything I do. I can advise you on materials, suppliers, and production processes that meet the highest standards of ethical and sustainable practices.
