Cath Kidston






 


































Cath Kidston is one of Britain’s favorite designers and best known for her vintage inspired homewares, clothing and accessories. She began her career as an interior designer before opening her first retail shop in London in 1993. In her new book ‘Coming Up Roses’, she tells her story of highs, lows and learnings that saw her business grow to become one of the country’s bestselling brands. It's a great example of a self-taught, female entrepreneur who built something amazing out of nothing. The book takes you on a journey of how she came to be a household name starting with Kidston as a little girl playing shop at home, to her growing up and searching car boot sales to find beautiful treasures to sell in her actual shop.
