Emily was born in 1974, the daughter of a musician Steven Mare. She is the youngest of three sisters. One sister is a nurse and the other sister does the same job as their mother used to do- she works as a secretary. Emily’s elder brother, Jack, is a photographer.
Emily first hit the newspaper headlines in 1996 when she graduated in fashion design from Art College. At her final show, her clothes were modeled by her friends, Catherine Smith and Lydia Harris, both well- known models. Unsurprisingly, the student show became front- page news around the world.
In March 1998, Emily went to work for the fashion house Chloe. People said the famous fashion house had given her the job because of her surname and her famous parents but Emily soon showed how excellent she was. She designed clothes which she would like to wear herself, although she was not a model, and many famous models and actors chose to wear them.
In 2001, Emily started her own fashion house and has opened stores around the world and won many prizes since then. As a lifelong vegetarian, Emily does not use any leather or fur in her design. Instead, she uses silk, wool and other animal-derived fabrics.
