Graduating from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp in 2002, Sarah landed her first internship in Paris, working for Givenchy’s Haute Couture collections. From there she continued on to Italy where Sarah expanded her horizon working for Alberta Ferretti. After these international experiences, Sarah organised a meeting with Belgian designer, Ann Demeulemeester, who already showed an interest in her work after judging her final graduate collection. For Sarah, working for Ann Demeulemeester as an assistant during four years was almost like a second education. She learned how to build a collection from scratch, how to source fabrics and how to work in a team.

After four years working for Ann Demeulemeester, Sarah decided to take a break from fashion. She met her boyfriend, who is in the music industry and decided to pursue this new creative outlet herself. After having two children, music became a passion instead of a job, and Sarah chose to get back into the fashion industry and started to work for Kipling. Kipling not only offered her some welcome stability, but she also gained a new perspective on the commercial side of the fashion industry. While working at Kipling, the roots for creating her own fashion label were planted, but with a 5-month-old daughter, the timing wasn’t right. After Kipling, Sarah went to work as an assistant at A.F. Vandevorst. It is here the dream for her own label grew even more, and in July 2017 she realised the time had arrived and it it was now or never. She decided to take a leap of faith and started to lay the foundation of Sarah De Saint Hubert, her own label where she could put all her obtained experience and knowledge to good use. READ LESS
