ABOUT OUR AMBASSADOR:

* Charlie Brown began her career in 1982 in San Francisco working in retail sales for Esprit. It was here she developed a love for fashion and design. After gaining valuable experience in the fashion industry, in 1985 Charlie Brown realised it was time for a change, moving all the way to Australia, where she spent seven years at the design helm of Howard Showers.

Following her dreams and passion, in 1995 she launched her self-titled label, Charlie Brown. The designs are described as sexy, playful, beautifully constructed and tailored. The Charlie Brown label moved from strength to strength launching the eclectic and glamorous Princess Charlotte red carpet collection in 2000.

Charlie Brown has a reputation for being clever, creative, bold and brave and is well known for collaborating with those stylists, sales people and creative teams who will help push her label to the edge – where she thrives!

The label has become synonymous with high profile supermodels and international talent including: Linda Evangelista, Helena Christiansen, Sophie Dahl, Jerry Hall, Jodie Kidd, Jade Jagger and Lily Cole.

Now, celebrating over 15 years, the enduring legacy of the Charlie Brown label continues.
