ble Vintage Fair was born! The fairs have gone from strength to strength and now serve a growing 25 cities nationwide. When asked about a particular high point of her career, Judy says, “definitely when we opened the doors to our London fair last season and over 2500 people flocked in. Sometimes I stand in a corner of the fair and get overwhelmed by how much it has grown in such a short space of time. Judy is forever adding new ventures to her repertoire, which recently included creating and curating the market at Vintage at Goodwood, curating this year’s Vintage on the South Bank event plus the creation of the Vintage Kilo Sale; where revellers can fill a bag weighing up to a kilo for £15! Judy offers this advice to anyone wishing to start their own fashion empire: “Stay positive, look for a unique idea and a gap in the market and try not to copy what you see. Ultimately, just have faith in yourself and your staff you’ll make it in the end!” Article by Katie Fox [email protected] TRASHION magazine 9
