Work history
    Events Executive
    As Events Executive, I am responsible for executing PR strategies and developing partnerships for local and international fashion brands within the UK and across Europe. Most recently the agency implemented a re-branding for UK high-street retailer, Warehouse. As apart of the new positioning I have been involved on a number of initiatives and campaigns, including guerilla activity, a huge summer party, bloggers events and an interactive campaign release to top-tier UK press. Other recent projects have included the launch of Dutch fashion label ‘SuperTrash’ to the UK market. This involved guerilla promotional activities in and around the flagship store to build awareness with consumers, which paralleled a store launch and after party, attracting four hundred key press from style, consumer and retail titles, as well as opinion formers and UK celebrities, achieving significant coverage for the client in major print and online titles. My role also exposed me to developing PR activities during Paris Fashion Week during the SS13 shows this year. Creating an event to showcase Sophie Hulme’s SS13 collection enabled us to reach key international press and buyers in a presentation format. Setting up a casting in Paris and assisting with all aspects of the production was great exposure to working within tight deadlines using initiative and creativity to solve problems. As a result the story was picked up by National newspapers and consumer titles, including Grazia and Style.com.
