It was her former boss who inspired Whitney Bromberg Hawkings to launch Flowerbx after years of strict instruction to only send out bunches of single stem blooms to clients.

That former boss was Tom Ford, no less, for whom Whitney worked as his former PA before working her way up to Senior Vice President of Communications at the designer's eponymous label.

Less than three years on and Flowerbx is one of the biggest, and certainly the chicest, online flower companies in the world.

With clients including Jimmy Choo, Bottega Veneta, Dior and of course, Tom Ford himself, and investment from the likes of Net-a-Porter Founder Natalie Massenet, Whitney is the woman making flowers sexy.
