But today, she’s celebrating a striking career transformation—turning over £100,000 in just six months by reselling pre-loved clothing on eBay through her business, The Fluffy Cow. Growing up in Bewdley, Emily was always drawn to fashion and loved hunting for bargains in charity shops and car boot sales. She initially dreamed of studying knitting at Nottingham Trent University but ended up entering the hospitality sector straight out of college.
