Moda Management Global links with REPT to secure fashion deals for top female footballers

As the Women's European championship come into full focus in Switzerland this week, international fashion-linked agency Moda Management Global has formed a strategic partnership with REPT, the sports management agency representing some of the world's top female footballers. Using its expertise in the fashion industry, Moda will be working alongside REPT to secure fashion partnerships for its roster of soccer talent including Grace Clinton, Celin Bizet, Lauren James, Keira Walsh and Alex Greenwood. To support the new phase of growth, Moda has also appointed Alice O'Connor as head of Communications & PR. She joins with a decade of experience in the fashion industry including global communications roles at Burberry and Alexander McQueen. O'Connor joins the team alongside Florence Huntington-Whiteley, who became Moda's 'client connector' in March. Moda Management founders Faye Browne & Lauren Clinton said: 'This is a really exciting time for [us]. Working alongside REPT [we can] capitalise on the huge opportunity between women's football and fashion, and welcome two new members, Florence and Alice to our growing team.' Sam Stapleton, founder & CEO of REPT, added: 'We pride ourselves on providing the best service to our athletes. As the women's game continues to evolve at pace, the crossover between football and fashion has probably never been more important.'
