Henry Holland
With 13 years as Creative Director and CEO of House of Holland, I have a wealth of experience across all areas the industry. An accomplished and creative marketeer I have strong skills in creating and executing campaigns both with seasonal collections and also collaborative projects.
Having worked with partners on both branded product and collaborative retail projects at all levels of the industry from luxury to high street I have amassed a 360° insight into all areas of creative fashion business.
A particular strength in licensing, partnerships and collaborations. Have worked on a number of global projects in this space both under my brand name of House of Holland in collaboration with leading brands from around the world, and as an independent consultant for other brands.
I have a strong strong belief that collaboration is key for any small brand looking to develop a global footprint with a localised team. Accessing the marketing budgets and manufacturing capabilities of some of the the world’s leading brands allowed House of Holland to offer its customers new and exciting products and campaigns keeping them engaged with the brand outside of the seasonal collections.
