About Amy and Amy Taylor Collection
“I was a young lady with a dream and once I saw that vision, there was no stopping me! I was brought up in a creative environment around my mum’s flower shop and from a young age I just wanted to make things and sell them.
So, I got into fashion and I got to be creative and make people feel amazing. That became addictive and that’s what I love doing – creating the most beautiful pieces I can to flatter any woman, to showcase all their curves and make their bodies look as beautiful as they can be.”
Favourite part about owning her own business:
“Being able to do what I love, being able to express my creativity, however I’m feeling, and not having anyone dictating what I’m doing. That’s probably my favourite part. If I want to create a dress today, I can, and I can design it however I want, without having anyone shut me down.”
No.1 business tip:
“What has taken me many years to learn is that you need a good bookkeeper! Especially if you’re a creative, you need somebody around you who’s really good at money so that you can flow together and create magic.Having a good connection and relationship with somebody that’s looking after the money side of the business takes all the financial pressure off me so I can be completely free with my creativity. That’s basically number one!”
“Keep smiling, stay beautiful. I just love making people feel beautiful.”

For me, what I love about Linda (SYM’s Head Honcho), is that she’s upfront. Whatever she says she’s going to do, she does, no empty promises – and that’s important. I like her soul, I like how she’s a go-getter and that resonates with me because that’s who I am as a person too. That’s why I have connected with her and I love her, she’s a legend!

Challenges before engaging the SYM Dream Team
“Not knowing my numbers held me back, to be completely honest. It’s something that I just didn’t focus on. It definitely affected my reality as I didn’t have an overview of my business finances.”
