Jenny McCarthy
I have over 30 years experience in textiles, garment construction, and fashion design. Much of this has been in my spare time whilst working in my first profession as a lawyer.
Embarking on a career change I have recently started Frock Goddess: designing and manufacturing occasion wear and bridal wear. My aim is to concentrate on sustainable fabrics, materials, and processes.

- What are your aspirations and plans for the future?: I am undergoing a career change from full time lawyer to starting a fashion brand. I want sustainability and ethical practices to be at the core of what I do. I plan to work with a small manufacturer in Leeds to manufacture my products.
- What types of projects are you interested in working on through Future Fashion Factory?: Research and development into the production and supply of fabrics and materials in the UK. This appears to be a challenge. And methods of sustainable production.
