S2 E10. Pretty Lavish: How to Turn £3000 into a Multi-Million Pound Fashion Brand with Stephanie Frost and Samantha Nunn

FREE eBook: How to Start a Fashion Brand on a Budget This week we are joined by Samantha and Stephanie Frost, the dynamic sister duo behind the womenswear label, Pretty Lavish. The girls share a tight knitted bond and grew up in an aspirational environment that thrived on self-belief and values. During their early years, Sammy and Stephanie witnessed the success of their father's business, and their mother, who worked as an accountant, which inspired them to want more for themselves. Their late father always told them that they too can create any life they want. This drove the girls to their early careers, where Samantha worked in fashion buying & Stephanie worked as an accountant - collectively making the ideal entrepreneurial package. The girls took the skills and knowledge that they gained from their previous roles and gracefully elevated their journey to launch Pretty Lavish in 2013 with just £3000. Today they run a multi-million-pound business, have a team of over 20 women, and boast an impressive following of over 250,000 people on Instagram. In this episode, we discuss Samantha and Stephanie’s journey to organic growth, how they approach the myth of balance, what being a leader entails, and the challenges they’ve had to face to get to where they are today. This is a great episode for someone who needs a reminder to focus on their individual journey towards becoming a fashion designer and the importance of self-belief.
