In this episode, Belle chats with WOHIVIA fashion designer, Olivia Wolstenholme. The Sheffield/UK-based brand creates one-of-a-kind, hand-made and sustainably sourced pieces, some of which feature healing crystals. The brand's designs range from festival wear to evening wear, and everything in between. WOHIVIA has recently been featured in London Fashion Week, as well as several pop-up events, including one coming up on the 22nd of July!

You'll also hear about Olivia's experience showing her Crystalized collection at London Fashion Week. Plus, some of her favorite types of crystals, selling on Depop and ASOS Marketplace, her advice to young designers, and how she's helped create a new fashion scene and creative community in the city of Sheffield!
