Jed Jagger
Jed's childhood coincided with the prevalence of pop art in New York. Andy Warhol's factory inspired and nurtured Jed's painting talent. He once said a famous saying, 'I like Mick and Bianca, but Jed's growth rate far exceeds mine.'. I taught her how to color, and she taught me how to play monopoly. She is 4 years old and I am 44 years old. Jed began her artistic career in the late 1980s. After studying painting in Florence, she held several successful exhibitions, and her free spirited entrepreneurial spirit led her to establish Jed Company, using the rich and colorful Bohemian style aesthetics to create unique jewelry. Her jewelry was initially only sold at Paul Smith stores around the world. The response from customers and the media was very enthusiastic, and since then, Jed's jewelry has been sold by internationally renowned retailers including Maxfields, Goodman, Barnes, Klaette, Brown, The Cross, and some popular places. Jed Company has become a global enterprise. Jed's commercial success was noticed by jewelry companies Aspre and Gallard. In September 2000, she was appointed as a fine jeweler in the House of Representatives, and after seven years of creative director work, she created many timeless collectibles, successfully bringing the world's oldest luxury brand into the 21st century. Its unique wing design remains the best-selling product in the House of Representatives. The Gallard store designed and opened by Jed has locations in London, New York, Tokyo, and Los Angeles. In 2004, Jed and her long-term design partner Tom Bartlett teamed up with John Hicks Cox, Phillips Stark, and Yoo to design a unique international apartment. This is the first apartment in New York. Shortly thereafter, a lake was designed in Kotswald, the most sought after hideout in England, to provide living space for Yoo's Boglion hotel project in Marrakesh, and four impressive apartment buildings were under construction in Mumbai. In 2008, the Jagger Dagger, designed specifically for Snow Tree Vodka, was exhibited on a world tour, bringing Jed's design to the forefront of the world. This work is a precious ice cone made of platinum and lapis lazuli. Not only did Jed design world-renowned interior designs and jewelry, but she also expanded her career into the fashion field, designing fashion and luxury items, and along with her jewelry, she sold them at her first store on St. John's Road in West End London in November 2009. In 2010, Jed took over one of the most famous design jobs in her career to redesign the most famous perfume bottle of Guerlain - Charimar. This includes the production of two unique jewelry bottles, with a top hand inlaid series of sapphires and polka diamonds. This design increased the annual sales of perfume by 42% year on year. In 2011, Jed received a new opportunity to redesign the label of the Little Pok \u00e9 mon at one of Bordeaux's largest wine brands, Pok \u00e9 mon Estate. Combining the elegant design of jewelry with her understanding of this exquisite wine, Jed reshaped the brand label image. Nowadays, in addition to focusing on fine handmade jewelry, Jed also frequently visits India to obtain inspiration from traditional Indian materials and transform them for sale to contemporary customers. Jed's unique sensibility, combined with exquisite luxury and rational value, has created all aspects of the Jed Jagger brand.

Jo malone
When Zumalong was young, her family had a poor economic environment. She grew up in a low-cost national residence provided by the government. Her father was an architect and artist, and her mother used to be a manicurist before becoming a beautician. When customers came to have their faces done, she would help her mother arrange dressing supplies in the kitchen, and the mother and daughter worked together seamlessly. Zumalon's father painted on weekdays and took him to a market in southern London on Saturdays to sell his paintings. Due to her parents' poor financial management skills, Zumalong's childhood life was not easy. Sometimes she had a lot of money, or else she was penniless. She became a young adult at a very young age. After going to school, Zumalong suffered from reading disabilities, often falling behind in exams and being punished by the teacher to stand in a chair, which made her feel ashamed. But since childhood, she has a keen sense of smell that is superior to others. As long as she has smelled the taste, she can easily find the formula. Her nose is like a paintbrush, and when she smells the taste, she can see the color in her mind. In 1994, Zumalong, who had no diploma, started her own business in her kitchen. She worked in a flower shop during the day and made faces in the kitchen at night. And quickly gained the attention of the beauty industry. Once, she concocted a nutmeg and ginger scented bath oil for customers, but it was unexpectedly popular. Someone bought 100 bottles at once to open the party, and 86 of the guests who attended the party purchased the same bath oil from Zumarong. Since then, Zumalon began to officially develop perfume. Perhaps because she has no formal training, her perfume is unique. Compared with other famous perfume, Zumalon's perfume fragrance is very simple, often with only one or two main flavors. Her favorite flavors are citrus and vanilla, which are often layered. She opened her first store on 154 Walton Street in London and quickly gained attention and became a popular local store. The innovation of this store is the key to its success, and Zumalong's enthusiasm and spirit also endow this store with unique value. In 1999, Zumalon's perfume was appreciated by the boss of New York's high-end department store, Bodolf Goodman, and entered this top luxury store. Soon, Est \u00e9 e Lauder acquired a majority stake in Zumarong Company. This is a milestone for the Zumalon brand. As the chairman, Zumalong continuously develops new products and promotes innovative concepts in the field of beauty and lifestyle. In 2010, Zumalong turned to the television industry. In May, she recorded her first interview on the BBC program. Zumalong inspires small business owners by sharing their retail experience and entrepreneurial spirit - their careers are full of light. In March 2011, Zumarong announced the start of her new career - the new fragrance brand quota; The launch of Jo Loves quota; Its inspiration comes from what has been inspiring her in Zumarong's heart. The new product includes the color of love, and the brand's trademark is red and blue, which looks like a ribbon passing through the earth. She admitted that starting a second business was more difficult than her first one, but the bumpy growth path of her childhood honed her spirit, allowing her to face consecutive challenges and create a better life.
