A talented lady with a knack for being in the right place at the right time. When the founder of The Steeple Times first encountered her, Wickstead was a little known fashion designer who was part of a charity fashion event in Chelsea organised by a Russian with a boutique in Essex. This Auckland born designer, however, had actually also studied at Central Saint Martins and went on to become a favourite of Samantha Cameron and The Duchess of Cambridge. She’s never looked back and her path to stardom is secure.
