Lifestyle meets fashion designer Katie Laura Bryan What is your style? My style is mixed depending on where I am going. I usually like to keep it glam, tailored and clean. I love to dress up in outfits that suit my height and figure.I am only small so I have to be careful what I wear. I don’t usually follow trends. I tend to stick to what suits me. I love wearing colours that really suit my skin tone like Cream, Beige, Browns and Gold tones. I love a statement skirt and a crisp white shirt with some glamorous shoes and gold accessories. During the day I love Athleisure clothing, a nice hoodie, cool trainers and a cap!

How did you get into fashion design? I am self taught. I was originally a stylist and sort of transitioned into fashion design by accident. I have always taken clothes and re designed them to my liking, so I bought a sewing machine and started making clothes I wanted to wear myself and it grew from there. How do you find the industry? Very competitive. With all the huge brands that have loads of money pumped into them it can be very hard to even get noticed. But I believe if you have a
unique product that you truly believe in then others will too. Who are your ideal customers? My ideal customers are women like myself. Someone who wants to stand out in a crowd, who loves being complimented on their outfits. Someone who appreciates the finer details and quality of fabric
