Senior Copywriter · London

Words that move people.

I’m Laura Hastings — a copywriter with over a decade of experience crafting brand voice, campaign copy, and editorial content for fashion and lifestyle brands.

Clarity, craft, and a healthy obsession with getting it right.

I’m a London-based copywriter specialising in brand copy and editorial content for fashion and lifestyle. Currently Senior Copywriter at Radley London, I’ve spent the last decade helping brands find their voice — and making sure it lands.

From long-form editorial to punchy campaign lines, I bring the same attention to detail whether I’m writing a product description or a tone of voice guide. I studied Fashion Journalism at the London College of Fashion and English & History at University College Cork — which means I’ve been thinking about how language shapes perception for a very long time.
