June 2022 – With the average British woman owning 20 bras yet only regularly wearing five, it’s little wonder that a staggering 19 million bras end up going into landfill every year, that’s the equivalent of 119 London buses.

Nudea’s CEO, Priya Downes explains the importance of Bra-cycle for the brand: “From the very beginning, we’ve been committed to operating Nudea as sustainably as possible.

Lagos born, Glasgow raised, London-based Olubiyi Thomas attended Central Saint Martins from 2009-2013, a graduate of the feted menswear BA programme, having been persuaded that his Fine Art skills may bring fresh perspectives on designing clothes.

I’m glad to have finally seen ‘The Car Man’ as it is a sight to see! ‘The Car Man’ is sexy, sultry and very dramatic. The show literally ropes you in in the first five minutes where we get to see about a dozen men take their clothes off to shower – and from then the show kicks off! The first production of Mathew Bourne’s dance sensation was back in 2000 at the Theatre Royal in Plymouth and then transferred to London’s Old Vic. And it has come and gone, most recently at Sadlers Wells in 2015. It’s now back…
Nina Doroushi’s fashion journey was triggered by taboos surrounding sexuality which lead to a fixation on the body, anatomy, skin and flesh. “Latex seemed to be the optimum material that came closest to conveying the skin more explicitly than the naked body itself”.

Nina Doroushi founded her eponymous womenswear label in 2017 as a response to being bored of “generic fetish-wear”. The London born and…
Email is an important part of a firm’s communication strategy. It has become an even more crucial part of a firm’s infrastructure due to the uptick in remote working. It’s also vital to have a proper sense of etiquette regarding emails. Otherwise, the reputation of individuals and institutions alike can be comprised.

Standards can also slip when emails become routine, and employees may become complacent in this aspect of their roles. Here are some…
