Meet the Wannabe Team

Jeanne Frith

Jeanne has more than twenty years of experience in the creative fashion industry and still works as a professional model and a choreographer which she has been doing for many years now.

Over this time she has become a very successful model and worked for many clients including; Avon, Ford, Vauxhall, Roman Originals, Tayberry, Boots, Janet Reger & Special K and many more. Jeanne has choreographed for many fashion shows at national arenas in London and Birmingham, NEC, VIP, Docklands and countless shopping centres across the United Kingdom.

She has been employed to work in many types of modelling schools & deportment classes but never really felt that they were quite right and they didn’t offer what our Wannabe Workshops aim to deliver which is why she co-founded Art of Fashion as she believes in providing something uniquely special. As part of the team it is her knowledge, passion and skills that helps give Wannabe Workshops such impact.
