The Unsuitable - LGBTQ Stories
Arts:Fashion & Beauty
Carol Stephenson was born in Canada and spent her early childhood in Edmonton, before moving to Sydney at the age of 8. Life was different, moving to a new country and new school bought its challenges including the onset of Anorexia Nervosa. Carol fought the hard fight and eventually won the battle although it can still rear its ugly head in stressful situations.
Carol worked in Athletic Fashion in Canada and Australia before launching Charlie Boy Clothing in 2013.
Charlie Boy Clothing was born out of a need for well fitting, stylish shirts that was non gender conforming.
Deb Beveridge-Stephenson is Carols wife and together they make a formidable team.
Deb was born and raised in Melbourne but spent many years traveling and representing Australia in Inline Skating. Deb has won over 22 National Titles and 11 World Championships for Australia.
Deb met Carol when she made enquiries about getting some shirts through Charlie Boy Clothing. Clearly Carol won Deb over with more than her shirts and the rest is history. All will be revealed in this episode.
Sit back and enjoy this awesome and fun filled story of how two worlds collided in two states of Australia.
