The 26-year-old who lives in Dudley said: “I work in my studio I’ve had built in my garden and I’ve built up my business through word of mouth and influencers online.

“In the future I’d love to teach people how to sew and do sewing courses as well as keep my business, or I would love to hire staff to sew for me depending on how my business grows.”

Natalie Johnston, fashion course leader at Halesowen College, said: “Congratulations to Georgia on her success and her business – what a great achievement!.

“Georgia was a fantastic student with a great work ethic and we knew she would go far.”
