ABOUT

I am the founder of Fashion True Futures and I’m passionate about building a more sustainable fashion future by guiding and supporting efficient, responsible practices within teams, operations and supply chains.

With over 20 years of international experience managing international fashion supply chains, I bring extensive industry knowledge and market awareness, cultivated in positions leading strategy, sourcing, technology, quality, and value chain management.

My career began in the UK, working in a technical and sourcing capacity in large scale, quality, global manufacturing and fashion retail companies. More recently, I have led sourcing, procurement and value chains for prominent fashion retailers based in Australia and implemented social, ethical and environmental compliance programs.

“I love sharing my knowledge and experience with fashion companies, designers and entrepreneurs to inspire and embed responsible and sustainable practice for ongoing success.”

I believe deeply in the importance of ethics and responsibility in value chains and currently work as a fashion industry consultant, mentor and tertiary educator. I love sharing my knowledge and experience with fashion companies, designers and entrepreneurs to inspire and embed responsible and sustainable practice for ongoing success.

There are so many obstacles to navigate when running any fashion business, large or small, emerging or established. Sharing experience within our communities and networks is invaluable, and together we can make the industry more sustainable – and accountable.

    I found this mentorship so valuable. There is often a feeling of isolation when you work alone and it’s so important to have someone with the knowledge, background and understanding of the risk factors and decision making paths. I highly recommend mentorship for anyone looking to launch and grow a fashion business. It truly is a priceless investment.

  • CIRKL as seen on fashion equipped. Fashion, business consulting.

    Time with Manuela made a huge difference - having someone other than myself look at what I had created and focus on my brand’s vision was invaluable. I regularly refer to my sessions and feel much more equipped to self-edit and trust my ability to step back to see if my ideas align with my vision. I believe it’s through putting yourself out there and sharing your creative journey with a mentor, that you slowly build up your own set of tools and little by little become more resilient and build self-belief.

    “Having access to a mentor in a niche market such as children's fashion is invaluable and rare. Working with Andrea from KaPow Kids has really helped move my swimwear range to the next level without compromising on my brand's authenticity. The benefits to working with a mentor are many and I would highly recommend it as an investment in your business growth.”

    We immediately felt at ease and in safe hands. We came away from our session with so much more clarity and confidence! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend working with the mentors at Fashion Equipped. If you can’t focus on exactly what you need at different stages, meeting with mentors can save weeks of research and indecisiveness.
