ENTREPRENEUR, ANN WHORRALL, MADE IT ONTO HIS & HERS MAGAZINE’S RADAR AFTER LAUNCHING HER RETAIL AND ONLINE BUSINESS, OLIVIA MAY, FEATURING A COVETABLE MIX OF FASHION AND ACCESSORIES.

We like to see a brand that offers more than just the usual wardrobe staples gaining ground and will be looking forward to seeing what the coming months bring for this intriguing independent business.

Olivia May is synonymous with style and individuality and is the passion of owner Ann Whorrall. This passion is plain to see from the fabulous styling to the excellent service. Layers, texture, colours, fabrics, design, all creating a new way of dressing to suit modern life.

The company offers clothing, accessories, footwear and jewellery from niche designers who make a real statement.

Ann is a truly inspirational woman who has a vision to bring exceptional contemporary clothing to an audience who appreciate quality and great design and who are confident in their own skin. Following a career in education as a teacher and school inspector, Ann, who has always loved fashion and creativity, took a different path and set up Olivia May.

The styling approach has always been to focus on the individual, so their items are handpicked by Ann to create a completely unique look.

At Olivia May you are encouraged to explore your own look and work with the team to create a style with a difference.

Just some of the fabulous brands from Olivia May:

• Rundholz Main Line, Rundholz Dip and Rundholz Black Label
• Ewa I Walla – Swedish romantic designer much of the range in pure cotton
• Nelly Johanssen – Mainly black & white pieces. Nelly chooses the fabric and then creates the shape
