Autobiography: business & industry

  • #GIRLBOSS

    £9.99

    The first things Sophia Amoruso sold online wasn’t fashion. It was a stolen book. At age 17 she was a dumpster-diving, shoplifting anarchist. By 29 she was the founder and CEO of Nasty Gal, a $100 million plus fashion empire. Filled with brazen wake-up calls, cunning and frank observations, and behind-the-scenes stories from Nasty Gal’s meteoric rise, this book is more than Amoruso’s story, it is a book for anyone seeking a unique path to success – even when that path is winding as all hell and lined with naysayers.

When tragedy unexpectedly blows this world apart, however, a new chapter in her life opens up. She takes to the camp and glamour of Harrods window dressing like a duck to water, and Mary, Queen of Shops is born.
