Jacquelyn Cole is a designer, textile advocate, and the founder of Coco Beau London. Launched in July 2024 and named a “Brand to Know” by Drapers in February 2025, the brand is built on Jacquelyn’s philosophy that fashion should be a tool for environmental restoration.  She is a leading voice in the transition toward a truly regenerative industry model - one that empowers the conscious traveller to wear their values.

Her expertise lies in the seamless integration of natural circularity, artisanal heritage, and technical innovation.  For her upcoming collection, Jacquelyn pushes the boundaries of material science through the application of organic cotton and organic rayon alongside pioneering marine-positive textiles like SEAQUAL® YARN.  She is particularly noted for her work with a 70% upcycled marine plastic and 30% recycled polyester blend - fabric that begins its life as litter recovered from our oceans.  By championing a specialised “Brushed Seal” finish, she ensures these recycled materials provide a luxurious, velvet-soft hand-feel that meets the highest standards of luxury.

Rooted in family and global community Jacquelyn’s journey into innovation began when her son, a financial trader in Australia, introduced her to the potential of regenerative textiles. This sparked a commitment to ethical, small-scale production, led by her partnership with an independent brother-and-sister manufacturing team in Jaipur who specialise in intricate hand-embellishment.

Jacquelyn’s recent work has been further refined through a close collaboration with international designer Scott Henshall.  Drawing on Henshall’s extensive design expertise, Jacquelyn is dedicated to demonstrating how the wider industry can foster a regenerative future.  This practical experience - including her partnership with the Sea Turtle Foundation - serves as a blueprint for a circular fashion landscape grounded in technical advancement and environmental stewardship.
