My name is Peggy and I was born on a small island called New Caledonia, in the South Pacific. My immediate family and I moved to Australia when I was nine, not knowing a word of English. We arrived in New South Wales and finally settled on the Gold Coast where I am now based.
Can you tell us about your brand, Juliette et Felicity?
Juliette et Felicity is a made to order, sustainable and ethical women’s fashion label which utilises hand techniques lost to machines.
Each collection uses mainly linens and other natural fabrics with a little nod to the past by incorporating natural dyes, hand embroidery and other fabric manipulations to give it that little something special.
What does a typical work day involve for you?
A typical work day includes checking my emails with a cup of coffee, writing my to-do list and then hitting the design table. From there, I create patterns, transform my design concepts to reality or fill customer orders. Then add in a kid pick up, dinner duties and I often finish the day off with a little social media planning.
