Corsellis, a fresh, vibrant label aimed at young, confident, party girls, began as a media favourite from the off. Featured on the likes of Footballers Wives, Britain’s Next Top Model and in the Mail on Sunday’s – You Magazine, it surprisingly wasn’t until last November that the official launch of Corsellis took place.

Zoe chose FashionExpo in association with Profile to expose her label to industry players and buyers. Initially Zoe thought she had failed to make much of an impression but a few days later some rather interesting calls came her way. First up Jenny Holloway, director of FashionCapital & Fashion-Enter, got in touch to say that Lisa Honey, assistant buyer at TopShop concessions was interested in seeing some Corsellis samples. From there on various meetings were set up culminating in a fantastic result; the Corsellis Collection was to be launched in the Bazaar section of TopShop on the 23^rd March 08.

In regards to the TopShop launch Zoe commented: “The hard work is finally paying off and I’m absolutely ecstatic to be given this amazing opportunity to have my own collection sold at probably the biggest high street store in the UK. It’s an absolute dream come true that I never would have thought possible. If this is what can happen in just 6 months of being a member of Fashion-Enter, I can’t wait to see what is in stall for Corsellis by the end of 2008!”

And that’s not all; you can now find the latest Corsellis designs featured on the FashionCapital boutique www.fcboutique.co.uk as well as the Fashion-Enter boutique in Croydon and the highly successful ASOS www.asos.com e-tail website at the end of April.

This marks just the beginning for Zoe and the Corsellis brand – already international opportunities are in the pipeline check back for all the latest developments. In the meantime we wish Zoe every success with her TopShop launch on the 23^rd March.
