I'm the founder of Fashion Entrepreneurs Academy. My own fashion business, Mac Millan, has been a favourite with celebrity clients including a member of the British Royal Family ... and my work has been featured in publications such as VOGUE, MARIE CLAIRE, GLAMOUR, COSMOPOLITAN, WWD, etc.
As a fashion obsessive, in 1996 I started making delicate chiffon dresses from my teeny weeny basement bedroom and grew that business to showing on the OFFICIAL schedule at NEW YORK FASHION WEEK , also LONDON & PARIS fashion weeks.
I've helped hundreds of fashion designers and most are making the same mistakes. They don't know how to reach the fashion press or buyers or even how to talk to them so that they respond. They want to launch and scale their fashion business but can't seem to reach a wide enough audience to SELL their designs.
So I created this mentoring and coaching programme with live coaching calls, 24/7 instant access to detailed video training and a private COMMUNITY to help transform FLOUNDERING creative designers to an IN DEMAND FASHION DESIGNER growing a MEMORABLE brand with competence and ease.

I build from that business experience through my unique 3X FASHION LAUNCH FORMULA in Fashion Entrepreneurs Academy to help designers like YOU build a HIGH PROFILE brand and LAUNCH with IMPACT so you can attract the RIGHT customers.
"Fashion Entrepreneurs Academy has helped me to think about aspects like manufacturing and to change my mindset. Jane has been a really good resource in terms of linking us to manufacturers, suppliers and she also gave me a good guideline as to what kind of price we might want to pay someone i.e. someone was getting ripped off and she was like “Hey I think that’s too much”. "
"My biggest struggle before joining Fashion Entrepreneurs Academy was taking risks and hiring help. Jane really pushed me to see the value of my time and the possibility of increasing productivity and profit by hiring out work. Now I am preparing for the launch of a new product and interviewing for studio and marketing assistants. The process of getting a product made filled a huge knowledge gap and I also found the module about money, and the conversations with other students about how to budget and finance their launch was refreshingly realistic."
"The 3 X Fashion Launch Formula in FEA gave me a kickstart with a clear direction and structure. You can customise the way you want to run your business and it made a difference not just for myself but also for my customers. I learned what is already working in the fashion business and new ideas in running a business. This has been a wonderful programme. The value is beyond your imagination. Jane is the person to guide you if you are looking for a mentor or coach who has experience, is open and very friendly. You can totally trust her and she created a safe environment for everyone to open up. "
"I was a little bit all over the place and I didn't really know where I wanted to go with my business. After going through Fashion Entrepreneurs Academy I’ve gone from selling face-masks to friends and family and just making things for the sake of it to having a proper launch plan. I've now got loads of design ideas and resources. ....And the 1:1 weekly coaching was really useful because I got to discuss my plan and struggles.... I feel like I found myself while doing it! I've really enjoyed every minute of it!”"
""Jane's programme has been very helpful . The most useful parts were Audience building, Finding a high quality manufacturer, Drafting a press release Finding journalists and editors. ... and if it wasn't for Jane I would not be in LONDON FASHION WEEK!""
"I found the weekly coaching so helpful. It was incredible to have my opinions matter and my questions be taken very seriously. The depth in which Jane was able to answer every question was phenomenal. I never expected so much information. Jane was incredibly helpful and so encouraging in every aspect of the course. I would not have a few pieces already in stock if Jane hadn’t have told me I could do it. "
"It felt unreal. It was super amazing to get a chance like that…. It was very cool to have my own collection in London… learning what to say, how to present, styling, look books and I really enjoyed it."
"Jane gave me clarity especially around positioning and pricing which I was struggling with! Now I can confidently move forward. I am so pleased with my progress all thanks to Janes’ encouragement. Because of the steps learned in FEA I am now in discussions with a sample machinist discussing my first collection which is a huge step towards making my business a reality. Jane is a very generous teacher. She gives you what you expect and even more. Encouragement from other members of the group was helpful. And the contacts."
