LFW 2013: 13th-17th September 2013
FashionSistas are debuting a cutting edge collection at The Angels of Fashion London Fashion Week - in Aid of The Prince's Trust
Rose Perkins, manager of FashionSistas, is a Prince's Trust Ambassador mentoring young people from 18-30 in fashion and creative arts.
Based in Birmingham, Rose will be working at a grassroots level, linking up with local schools in the inner city to encourage children in pursuing their dreams.
She also takes on interns to develop their creative training and business skills.
Progress - new avenues - networking - thinking outside of the box - creating my own opportunities not waiting for opportunity knocks.
- Rose Perkins, August 2013
Her current intern reached out to her through word-of-mouth recommendation and within two weeks began making jewellery and custom clothing with Rose, who explained: "She has her own business so I'm mentoring her on the job and referring her to the Prince's Trust". Together they have been customising special black and gold pieces, for the "Iconic Fashion" themed event for the Angels of Fashion show on Saturday.
Always pushing the thread to create edgy designs:
FashionSistas are expanding horizons and collaborating with international talent including Hungarian Szimonetta Sabo, (Las Vegas Fashion Week 2013) and Israeli designer Racheli Titan.
Rose said: "We have some amazing future ongoing projects so watch this space. Theres so much going on but some of it is secret so i don't want to say too much".

FashionSistas also donates regularly to the Birmingham Heart Foundation in the city centre. Rose said: "We are planning to give back by myself and my intern volunteering a few hours a month in the city centre store."
We can't get enough of FashionSistas' photo shoots, it's more than just wanting the look, it's the feeling that emanates from within the picture, and there's an art to it.
Call Rose at the Birmingham boutique for a FREE consultation on 0121 607 8250, whether you want to book a pampering session or enquire on her work with the Prince's Trust.
