Following degrees in fashion design and illustration from Parsons and Pratt in NYC, Vanessa Knox’s career kicked off when she became Head Designer of lingerie at Natori followed by her role as a Head Designer for Victoria’s Secret.
In 2001, Vanessa co-founded Isabella Oliver whilst pregnant with her first child after finding it extremely difficult to buy stylish and contemporary clothing to wear during pregnancy. Vanessa’s skills in lingerie design gives her a unique perspective on cut and flattering fit and as Chief Designer for Isabella Oliver she can claim much credit for establishing the company as a leader in its field. In 2010 Vanessa left the company to launch her own eponymous designer collection, supported by a complementary maternity offering. The label is currently enjoying its second season and is available online at www.vanessaknox.com. The collections are designed to suit the busy, modern, multi-faceted woman (much like herself) and follow Vanessa’s own easy, fuss free style to see them through every situation with confidence. The label is favoured by stylish women such as Thandie Newton, Joanna Lumley, Sam Taylor Wood, Heidi Klum, Jennifer Lopez, Gwen Stefani, Sienna Miller and Angelina Jolie amongst others.
Vanessa lives in Fulham, London with her husband and has two children: nine year old Isabella Honor (who wants to be a designer when she grows up) and seven year old Piers who plans to be a singer and a vet.
This week’s Mama Glow Icon is none other than Christy Turlington-Burns, mother, supermodel, maternal advocate, filmmaker, and founder of Every Mother Counts. I admire her work and commitment to global change in maternal care. Christy was a part of our very first Mama Glow Film Festival in the Hamptons last August and we look forward to more work together supporting her mission and making the world a better place for mothers, for us all.
Recently I was invited to attend a luncheon with Christy in support of Every Mother Counts and at the event her album was released and she has been generous to give one lucky winner a copy of the new ‘Every Mother Counts’ album. With an astonishing cast of superstars from Eddie Vedder, Lauryn Hill to Coldplay, these heartfelt recordings make up an amazing compilation that supports maternal health care worldwide. Listen to one of the songs entitled , ‘Mother’ by Edward Sharp. Enter the Gift of Glow drawing and you could be playing these tunes too!
In support of our friend and Mama Glow Icon Christy Turlington-Burns we are shutting down on Mother’s Day- being silent in solidarity. Find out why.
