Emilia Wickstead

New Zealand-born, London-based designer Emilia Wickstead spent her formative years in Milan before studying at London’s Central Saint Martin’s. Having honed her craft at fashion houses in New York and Milan, she went it alone and set up her own label in 2008. Originally offering an exclusive made-to-measure service, she has since branched out into ready-to-wear and shows at London Fashion Week. She’s been shortlisted for numerous fashion industry awards and has become a red carpet go-to thanks to her unique brand of grown-up femininity.
