Women in Business

If you’ve ever walked into Fabric Boutique and left feeling like a new woman, you’ve felt the magic of Michelle Mellet. Radiating style, joy, and fierce female energy, Michelle is more than a business owner – she’s a confidence catalyst, a philanthropic powerhouse, and soon-to-be wife of Tibbi Aquila, her equal in passion and dynamism.

More Than Fashion: A Movement of Confidence

At Fabric Boutique, Michelle Mellet has created more than a clothing shop. She has built a space where women of every shape, size, and background feel valued, confident, and strong. Her mission is simple: fashion should serve as a tool for empowerment, not limitation.

Her Tribe of Queens

“Every woman who walks through that door deserves to feel like the main character in her story and I’m just here to remind her.”
At the heart of her inspiration is her beloved Mother Sue, her best friend, her rock, and the woman who taught her that kindness, strength, and empowerment are a powerful combination.

Behind Michelle is a team of like minded women who share her vision. They are more than colleagues-they are co-creators in shaping a welcoming, uplifting vibe. Together, their aim is to empower every woman who walks through the door, building confidence and a belief that women are always stronger together.

The Love That Fuels Her

Michelle’s vibrancy is matched by the man by her side, Tibbi Aquila, her soon- to-be husband and kindred spirit. Their relationship has shared vision, deep respect, and boundless energy. Together, they light up every room, every event, every initiative with authentic joy and intention.

“Tibbi supports every crazy idea I have,” Michelle laughs. “He’s my calm in the chaos and the biggest believer in everything I do.”

Empowering Women Through Positivity

At her core, Michelle is an uplifter. Her boutique isn’t just about shopping; it’s a platform for empowerment. She often hosts in-store events, styling days, and confidence talks to celebrate every woman, regardless of age or size.

With infectious energy, Michelle transforms the simple act of getting dressed into an act of radical self-love.

“Every woman deserves to walk out of her house feeling like the best version of herself. If I can help make that happen, even just a little, I’m doing something right.”

A Woman with a Cause: €50,000 Raised for the Homeless.

Michelle’s social conscience is stitched into every part of her life. In 2023, she organised a high-profile charity fashion gala that raised an astounding €50,000 for the homeless.

Her commitment to community doesn’t stop there. She regularly supports women’s shelters, mental health initiatives, and outreach programmes for disadvantaged youth. Her events are never just about glamour; they’re about giving back, lifting others, and using fashion as a force for good.

“We rise by lifting others. And even better if we can do it with glitter, laughter and kindness.”

The Fizz Factor

To know Michelle is to see the spark she brings to life. Whether she’s popping Prosecco at a boutique launch or dancing at a fundraiser, her joy is contagious. She’s the friend who hypes you up when you’re doubting yourself. The stylist who says, “Yes, you can wear that.” The woman who walks into your life and leaves you bubbling with possibility. “Life throws its punches. My job is to help women punch back with colour, confidence, and killer heels.”

Final Word: Confidence with Conscience

Michelle Mellet proves that style can be soulful, fashion can be fearless, and business can be bold and benevolent. Through Fabric Boutique, her charitable work, and her vibrant personality, she brings more than outfits to women’s lives, she brings confidence, compassion, and connection.

Her love for Tibbi fuels her, her passion for women drives her, and her love for life shines in everything she does.
She is a can-do, will-do kind of woman who doesn’t get stuck, she gets going. And in doing so, she reminds every woman she meets: You can shine, no matter the storm.

She will dress your body, yes, but more importantly, she’ll help you feel confident. One visit to Fabric Boutique will help you understand that Michelle Mellet is not just a woman you want to meet, she’s a woman who will remind you of who you are.

Michelle’s mantra is: no matter what, get dressed up and show up in your own inimitable style.
