Erin Deering is an Australian entrepreneur and fashion designer.[1]
Deering and her fiancé, Craig Ellis, co-founded Triangl, an online neoprene swimwear line, after moving to Hong Kong.[2] "We launched the label in December 2012, after our second date at the beach, when I couldn't find a bikini to wear," she recalled.[3] "We quickly decided, for pragmatic reasons, to rely exclusively on social media," Ellis admitted.[4] In 2014, numerous celebrities, including the likes of Ellie Goulding, Kendall Jenner and Miley Cyrus, promoted Triangl via Instagram.[5] Oddly enough, "neither of [them] studied," she admitted, adding, though, that "both of [them] have worked in the industry for quite a few years."[6] Deering made the 2015 BRW Young Rich List with a net worth of $36,000,000.[7]
