By ANGELA ST. JOHN

Charlotte Bunbury came from a family of artists, so it is no surprise that shefollowed this path herself. From and early age, her dream was to become a fashion designer with her own shop. One of 10 children of a British Army officer, Lotty (short for Charlotte) was born in Malaysia in 1968 and spent her childhood travelling from country to country.

After several years of boarding school and and a year's art foundation course, she studied mural design at the Chelsea Art College, specializing in stained glass windows.
