Newsletter 7th December 2016

Dear all,

7 dec forward ladies winnerIt’s been a big week for fashion, while this year’s Fashion Awards (formerly The British Fashion Awards) upscaled operations to rival New York’s Met Gala, Fashion Enter received a national award of their own. Having won the regional Not For Profit and Social Enterprise Women In Business Award earlier in the year, last Thursday our CEO Jenny Holloway took to the podium once again to pick up the Forward Ladies national award that celebrates the achievements of women in business today.

Jenny comments: “This is a total team effort. Fashion Enter could not have achieved all we have done without each and every one of our fabulous team. I’m so proud of everyone and I have to say this was genuinely not expected!”

Introducing Pattern Cutter Marta

7 dec pattern cutterMarta has been at the factory for the past 2-weeks now as a creative pattern cutter, she comments:

“I have been working in the factory here at Fashion Enter for the past 2-weeks now and I am really enjoying it so far. I studied fashion design and pattern cutting in Italy, before moving back to London after spending a few months working in a high-end studio.  What I like the most about working at Fashion Enter is the variety of the products that we create, every day is different and this keeps me on my toes and continuously motivated.”
