Wayne began his career selling handmade and vintage clothing at Camden Market. Alongside his wife Gerardine, he built Red or Dead into a globally-celebrated label and, after 21 seasons on the catwalk, sold it in a multi-million-pound deal. In 1999, Wayne and Gerardine founded HemingwayDesign which specialises in affordable and social design. As well as housing, Wayne and his team have designed furniture for G Plan and John Lewis, wallpaper for Graham & Brown, uniforms for McDonalds and London Underground, and a host of other projects for clients. Wayne received an MBE in 2006 and is on the Design Council Trustee Board and the Design Council CABE Committee.
Wayne recounts how he started from humble beginnings and then rose to success and fame with his own label. Whilst his presentations offer fascinating insights into the complex world of fashion and design they also demonstrate the importance of ethics, creativity and innovation in business.
Wayne’s down to earth and entertaining presentations leave audiences highly inspired and energised.
