Astrid & Miyu
Connie Nam founded Astrid & Miyu in 2012, inspired by travels with her family in her younger years - visits to markets and boutiques and picking out special (albeit inexpensive) pieces of jewellery. Connie wanted to replicate the warmth and feeling she experienced when purchasing jewellery from markets in her younger years, but in a high street and online setting. Now, in 2023, Astrid and Miyu is a well-known brand across a number of markets - with 23 stores, a strong global presence and £35m projected revenue.
