WORKING for fashion gurus like Vivienne Westwood, Corsley designer Freddie Zerafa has made clothes for celebrities ranging from Jonathan Ross to Cherie Blair.
But now the father-of-three is putting this expertise to good use by dressing people with his own designs.
Helped by wife Emma, Mr Zerafa is starting up his own business at his home in Lyes Green. And the 40-year-old is determined to make his clients feel like the stars whose clothes he used to produce.
Mr Zerafa came to London from his native Malta in 1983 and started work for companies such as Burberry.
The family moved to Dilton Marsh in 1997 and then on to Corsley in May.
He is devising a label to put inside the clothes he designs.
