Making waves: Meet Georgia Thompson, founder of swimwear...
After 10 years of working for different companies, Georgia Thompson bit the bullet and decided to create Evarae - a luxury resort wear brand where she had the freedom to be creative once again and be able to travel the world whilst working. The move into swimwear felt natural for Georgia, as she’d spent summers as a child on board her father's boat called Evarae - the namesake for her brand - as well as travelling the world with her stepfather, helping him hunt for inspiration for his yacht company. The entrepreneur tells us that due to her “childhood spent by the sea travelling, resort and swimwear has always felt natural.” As a child, Thompson had an au pair who studied at the esteemed St Martin’s Fashion College, and it was then, after watching her sit and sketch, that she decided designing was what she wanted to do in the future years. Evarae’s SS17 range features a line of pieces that instantly become classics - from two-piece bikinis to one-pieces, Georgia tells us that her favourite piece is the ‘Seona One Piece’ in a gorgeous dark blue silky Italian fabric.
A new dawn for British Vogue
"Edward is an exceptionally talented stylist who will no doubt bring an exciting new creative aesthetic to the magazine," said Alexandra Shulman, British Vogue's current editor. "Every Vogue editor arrives with their own range of talents and experience and Edward is very known, respected and liked within the fashion industry. I look forward to finding out his plans as soon as possible and working with him over the next few months of transition so that British Vogue continues to be the leading magazine in this market." In terms of diversity alone, Enninful’s appointment is a "surprise" that's most welcome. Indeed, on many levels, he will certainly strike a fresh contrast to the predominantly white middle-class women who work at the magazine today and appeared in Richard Macer’s BBC2 documentary last year.
