Catching Up with Alumni Entrepreneurs: Le Prix Featured in Laurier’s Purple & Gold Magazine

What began as a personal styling project while I studied Environmental Studies and Business at Laurier has grown into Le Prix—an award-winning platform offering curated pre-loved fashion, wardrobe consulting, public speaking, and sustainability coaching for small businesses. Our mission is simple: help people make mindful choices that align with their values—without compromising style, quality, or comfort.

Why this feature matters

This Laurier feature, “Catching up with alumni entrepreneurs”, highlights graduates who are building value-driven businesses. For Le Prix, that means pairing timeless style with real sustainability outcomes—from how we source and care for garments to how we ship and educate our community.

Growth often comes from purposeful pivots—choosing impact and alignment over “more for the sake of more.”
