Bio
Hi everyone,
My name is Derrick G. Christine. I am young entrepreneur in the fashion industry.
I have created Essence Of creativity in order to promote independent brand but also young artist and posting about lifestyle.
I was born and raised in Guadeloupe which is a small island situated in the Caribbean archipelago and which is part of the Lesser Antilles. Since a young age, I was fascinated by art, music, travelling, culture, and obviously fashion.
Unfortunately, I did not really follow my heart when it was times to undertake my studies at Uni. But it’s never too late to accomplish your dream.
After arrival in England in 2012, everything changed. I have been travelling in Europe and then discovered the "world of fashion and art"; By visiting famous different spot; Madrid with is beautiful and historic sight such as El Retiro or museum El Prado; Paris with his taste for fine art and fashion; and London with famous area such as Camden Town, home to London’s grittier alternative scenes, or Shoreditch where you will find an eclectic mix of art galleries, designer furniture and clothing shops, funky cafes and traditional pubs. I have literally discovered even more that I was expected, full of creation, colors, innovative idea and passion.
I have undertaken my study at Coventry University, England where I successfully completed my Bachelor degree International Engineering Business Management, Master degree Marketing and advertising, and certification in entrepreneurship.
During those years I have manage to meet incredible person from all around the world, from different culture with all those incredible style and energy. Being in this atmosphere, I have started to be really passionate in art, music and fashion.
After finishing all my studies I have been travelling in Europe in order to visit friends but with always this aim to discover more and found always high quality accessories, clothes or shoes that I could not found in normal retail shop or usual online shop.
This is were the idea comes from pretty much. Help people like me to know about those "hidden" brands but in the same type help those independent brands and artist to get noticed by a bigger crowd.
At EOC I want to allow independent brand (casual/street wear) and artist to get out of this situation, allow them to focus on their creations and help them to gain more visibility.
I believe in talent and I think that there is way too much talent still hidden.
