Welcome to Funkie 💖
Hi, I’m Emily, Founder & CEO of Funkie
Welcome to our journey of revolutionising fashion commentary, empowering fashion creatives, students and interns and ditching unattainable, elitist narratives in the fashion industry.... byeeee 👋🏼
We’re on a mission to make fashion education accessible, relatable, unapologetic, daring, empowering, opinionated, modern and diverse.
What is out there for your typical fashion student in the UK? Seriously, what is out there that is truly accessible, enriching, relatable and non-London-centric? Very little.
The truth is - it isn’t that the knowledge, the resources, the support and the opportunities aren’t out there, they are. The fashion landscape’s job market is diverse and thriving. But with the ever-changing nature of society pre-pandemic and the notoriously gated fashion community, it can be extremely labour-some and demotivating for fashion students to actually submerge themselves into studying fashion whether it be design, marketing or communications.
Balancing the need to enrich their knowledge, study fashion theoretically and practically whilst doing suitable research and feeding their creative natures, it can be down right overwhelming for someone new or inexperienced in the fashion landscape. And trust me, we’ve all been there.
There’s so much out there and a fashion fresher shouldn’t be judged for not knowing who Manolo Blahnik is or for not reading Vogue magazine. Every individual is different, with different backgrounds, opportunities, preferences, passions, perspectives.
So that’s why I’m here, I want to simplify fashion education. Make it fun, inspiring and digestible.
We are going to build a community, pioneer a blog cast and provide you with physical and digital resources to enhance your fashion education, so you can flourish.
That’s it. That’s all I’ve got to say for now. You’re one step closer to curating your future in fashion.
Love,
Your fashion BFF,
Funkie x
