Inside the Industry – Anya Hindmarch at LCF

On Thursday 5 June, LCF welcomed fashion designer Anya Hindmarch MBE as she took part in a ‘UAL Meets’ and LCF Inside the Industry talk.
Anya spoke with head of LCF Professor Frances Corner OBE,  covering a variety of topics ranging from how to set up and grow your own business, the best ways to manage investors and the importance of craftsmanship and ‘old-fashioned’ luxury. She also talked through the creative process behind some of her recent catwalk presentations.

She gave LCF students some great advice on how to stay motivated whilst starting up your own business:

“Starting a business is really fun and I hope you all get the chance to do it one day, but it’s also very hard work, so the best advice I can give you is to never give up. If you don’t give up, you will get there in the end.”
