Wadle said it was Olympia Gayot, creative director of women's and kids' at who came up with the idea. 'She wears the jewelry, so it was a natural, organic partnership. It has a nautical feel, and is a summer brand associated with being at the beach. It's a season when we thrive, and there's a lot to celebrate,' she said. The collaboration, which features fish motifs, nautical cord necklaces and a white linen shirt adorned with Alighieri golden buttons, exemplifies how Wadle has been running the company. She said she encourages collaboration and wants her team to be looking outward and engaging with popular culture.

Collaborations are a pillar of the growth strategy. Earlier this year, forged a three-year partnership with U.S. Ski & Snowboard, the longest partnership in its history.

Asked about how approach has changed, Wadle, who was decked in a cream barn jacket, white embellished skirt and sleek heels with an ankle strap and pointy toe, said that 15 years ago 'there was a formula to dressing.' Today, she said, personal style is so much more important and that people like to mix things up. 'We know we're not the only brand out there, but we want our pieces to have longevity, to be wardrobe workhorses. We want to be a go-to brand for people styling themselves.' She picked up the Woman of the Year award during a cocktail at Burberry's Bond Street store. Ian McGarrigle, chairman and founder of World Retail Congress, described Wadle as the latest in a list of women 'who not only lead with vision, but who also pave the way for future generations of women to thrive in this dynamic industry.'
