“Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.” — Coco Chanel

What a fabulous evening hosting an inspiring conversation between Georgie Dickins, WILG CEO, and the brilliant Polly McMaster, Founder and CEO of the The Fold.

Polly’s journey into fashion is anything but conventional, starting with a PhD in virology, she began her career as a scientist before trading in the white lab coat and moving into private equity and consulting. It was there she spotted a gap in the market: the lack of beautifully crafted, confidence-boosting workwear designed by women for women. Because, as we know, how we feel in what we wear directly impacts our energy, confidence, and presence.

The evening was filled with vibrant conversation, great energy and expert style guidance - with many of us discovering (and taking home!) stunning pieces of modern, professional workwear.

A heartfelt thank you also to Alexandra Fullerton for her insightful tips and styling expertise - former fashion director of <Stylist> magazine and a regular fashion writer for The Telegraph.

And to each of you who joined us and made the evening so special.

Polly’s mission is to empower women to achieve their ambitions. A bold mission and one which she is certainly executing on with impact!
