Alicia Kite is one of the UK's most pioneering figures in fashion. She opened her first luxury designer boutique at 19 — becoming one of the first UK retailers to stock Moschino and growing Alicia Kite into a five-store fashion destination, working with Prada and Dolce & Gabbana. She went on to launch Begin Again, a designer resale concept that was ahead of the sustainability curve by decades, before channelling her expertise into personal styling and the Alicia Kite Academy — now 20 years old, and responsible for training an entire generation of image consultants across the UK. Her latest venture is her own shapewear brand, designed from the ground up to be breathable, comfortable, and stylish enough to show off — not hide in. From teenage entrepreneur to academy founder to product designer, Alicia Kite has spent over three decades reshaping how women think about fashion, confidence, and what they wear.
Alicia Kite is our guest in episode 578 of My Time Capsule and chats to Michael Fenton Stevens about the five things she'd like to put in a time capsule; four she’d like to preserve and one she’d like to bury and never have to think about again .
