About this Event

On 27 March, take part in an engaging conversation with Amy Smilovic and Otegha Uwagba, celebrating the release of Almost Reckless: A Creative and Pragmatic Approach to Taking Risks, published by Penguin Life.

Amy Smilovic founded Tibi in 1997 with $15,000 and no formal fashion training, building it into one of fashion’s most enduring independent brands while developing a distinctive philosophy she calls “creative pragmatism.” In this conversation, she will reflect on risk, leadership, and the realities of building a creative business over nearly three decades.

Otegha Uwagba is a culture journalist and the bestselling author of three books: We Need To Talk About Money, Whites: On Race and Other Falsehoods, and Little Black Book: A Toolkit for Working Women. She regularly contributes to publications including the Guardian, Vogue, The Gentlewoman, New York Magazine, the Sunday Times, and the New Statesman.
