Former Fashion Editor at Hunger Magazine and right hand to Rankin, Kim Howells has cultivated a path that far outreaches fashion. When she entered motherhood, a 2.0 version of herself was born and life circumstances inspired another path. A path of advocacy and activism for mothers everywhere.

Howells, whose clients range from Fendi, Dior and David Koma to Rita Ora, Grimes and Jessie J, did it all from the heart.

Having given birth to her son Indigo during the first lockdown in England, she realized how difficult it was to nurture a newborn during a pandemic. Howells had the added challenge of having to wait two weeks before she could hold Indigo, as her son spent his early days in intensive care recovering from meconium aspiration syndrome. Because of the complications following the birth, Howells also had to rely on milk donated from other mothers before she could begin breastfeeding the baby herself. As a result of those struggles, Howells has started an online platform called Tits Up (which in Britain refers to something that’s gone wrong), where new mothers can connect, pour into each other and be empowered and nourished.
