You might know Sophie Hermann for being on Made in Chelsea (and Celebs Go Dating, too). But, before her time on TV, Sophie was a fashion designer, studying fashion business and fashion design at the Istituto Marangoni in Milan before she decided to audition for Made in Chelsea.

And way back in 2012, Sophie started her own collection Sophie Hermann London. However, starting the label in her early 20s didn't go entirely to plan, and, sadly, Sophie ended up liquidating the company.

Now, a decade later, and Sophie has been selling off the collection, which is a: far more sustainable and b: the pieces are selling at a far lower price point.

'I put lots of effort into designing these pieces and it’s a project very close to my heart,' she says. 'I want to share this part of my journey with my fans, and encourage everyone to think sustainably and value high quality and creative craftsmanship.' Sophie also told MailOnline about the collection, 'I joined Made In Chelsea because of the collection. I thought coming onto the show would be the perfect platform to advertise my designs. However, I didn't take into consideration who was watching the show. I miscalculated the target group and had no idea what I was signing up for on MIC,' Sophie continued, adding that she thought the designs would sell-out incredibly quickly.

The collections Sophie designed feature lots of bodysuits, with chic shoulder pads, there's also Peter Pan collars, and dresses with sweetheart necklines. But one of the standout pieces is a multicoloured tweed blazer, which actually featured on the cover of Grazia, modelled by Cressida Bonas when she was going out with Prince Harry.

The Made In Chelsea star has also had a little help in selling the collection from none other than her Celebs Go Dating castmate Geordie Shore's Chloe Ferry website, as the pieces are being shipped from a warehouse Chloe uses for her own businesses. Friendship goals, tbh.
