Caroline Rush CBE is a marketing professional who is Chief Executive of the British Fashion Council.[1][2]

Her role is to promote the British fashion industry, particularly through organising London Fashion Week and the British Fashion Awards[3]

Career

Caroline Rush started working in public relations and marketing in about 1992.[4] Her association with the British Fashion Council started in 1998, when she was employed by Annette Worsley-Taylor Associates, who were the creative and marketing consultants for the London Fashion Week.[4] She started a public relations agency called Crush Communications in 2002,[4] and became managing director.[4] The British Fashion Council appointed this company as the press office for all British Fashion Council initiatives, including the London Fashion Week and the British Fashion Awards, with Rush as a public relations strategy adviser to the British Fashion Council.[4]

Rush was appointed British Fashion Council joint chief executive in March 2009.[5][6][11] As joint Chief Executive, she oversaw the Council’s move into Somerset House in 2009.[12][7] In a restructuring, Rush became sole chief executive in June 2012.[2] Rush "played a key role in attracting brands such as Burberry and Pringle and British designers such as Antonio Berardi and Jonathan Saunders back to London."[6][8] Hilary Alexander credited Rush with changing London Fashion Week from being a 'poor cousin' compared with Paris, Milan and New York, "and showing that Britain is really where it all begins".[9]

Personal life

Rush lives in Wimbledon.[10] Her husband, Matt, is a PE teacher,[11] and was previously a professional footballer for West Ham, Norwich and Oldham.[12] Her daughter, Lana, was born 9 February 1997, and played in junior Wimbledon 2012.[13]

She was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2015 New Year Honours for services to the British fashion industry.[14][15]
