Notes to Editors:
The UK’s leading authority on bed and bath, Chrissie Rucker founded The White Company in 1994. Still very much at the heart of the business today, Chrissie is a dedicated working mum with four children. At sixteen years old, Chrissie left her childhood home in Kent to study fashion design in London. After college she spent the next seven years working in the fashion, beauty and interiors departments of some of England’s most coveted magazines, including Brides, GQ, Vogue, House & Garden and Harpers & Queen.
Over the last twenty years, Chrissie has worked closely with many of the very best interior designers and stylists, learning tricks of the trade on how to make the best of our homes. This valuable knowledge, combined with her unlimited passion and creative flair, has been applied to her many achievements, from The White Company to having moved and redecorated her own home three times, to her first book, How to Style Your Bedroom.
What began as a modest mail order concept for beautifully designed, affordable home accessories, principally in white, The White Company has become a benchmark for the lifestyle market and is today one of the UK’s pre-eminent and fastest growing brands with 26 retail outlets, 16 brochures per year and a thriving online store.
