Rising through the ranks at Karen Millen and AllSaints, Hannah Coffin launched Needle & Thread in 2013 after spotting a gap in the market for contemporary, feminine, timeless pieces. Launching exclusively with ASOS, the brand was soon stocked by major retailers including NET-A-PORTER and Harrods. Tapping into a growing demand for affordable luxury, Needle & Thread quickly expanded to launch its e-commerce site in 2015, a bridal collection in 2016, and is now a global brand loved by stars from the likes of Sarah Jessica Parker to Drew Barrymore, Fearne Cotton to Jessica Alba. Here, listen to Hannah talk about her first time making her own clothes as a teen, the pros and cons of starting her own business and what’s next for Needle & Thread.
