Creative Director Lulu Guinness Job Title: 

Creative Director

Company: Lulu Guinness

Biography: Renowned for her “must have” handbags, Lulu’s creations are carried by 'A' list celebrities including Keira Knightley and Scarlett Johansson.

It was whilst working in the film industry during the 1980s, that Lulu had a great idea for a women’s briefcase. And it was this idea that led to the start-up of her own business from the basement of her house. From briefcases she went on to make a baby bag using Celia Birtwell hand-printed fabrics, and the company grew from there.

The Lulu Guinness brand has now expanded into a number of areas including homeware, interiors, sunglasses and perfume.

Lulu's Top Tip:

" Get your foot in the door of a company through work experience and be enthusiastic. At first you might have to take a job that isn’t your “dream” job, but keep on persevering and good luck. "
