This was because she needs to ‘get to grips with the bigger picture first’. Speaking to Celebrity Secrets, she said: “We had a venue booked for Christmas, so of course we’ve had to cancel that.
“I hadn’t bought my dress, though. I’ve had designers approach me to work on a dress, and that’s something I’ll do when the time’s right.
“That’s the easy part – finding a dress, organising the catering and finalising the guests.
“It’s just the bigger picture for myself and Ryan that we need to get to grips with first.” Louise Thompson said.
Last summer Louise revealed how hunky Ryan got down on one knee during a hike in Los Angeles and admitted she “cried for three days” afterwards.
Speaking about the engagement, Louise said: “It’s the most exciting thing that’s ever happened to me in my entire life.”

Louise Thompson Interview
Q: For a debut collection together, what’s the biggest lesson you’ve learnt about fashion so far?
Louise Thompson: The pace of the industry! Working a season ahead with design and development of the collections means that you are constantly thinking and planning ahead. Organisation and multi-tasking are definitely key elements when working within fashion.
Q: If you could give one piece of advice to anyone starting out in the fashion industry now what would you say?
Louise Thompson: I definitely agree with Edward, it can be really hard starting out but if you’re patient and determined then things will start to fall into place. I would also say it’s good to have a supportive network around you, from friends and family to also business relationships, having people around you that believe in your brand is a tremendous help.
Q: If you could give women one piece of fashion advice what would it be?
Louise Thompson: Looking good comes from within, so if you are feeling confident and positive then whatever you’re wearing you are going to look good!
Q: Who do you hope to see in Pocket London jeans, or has there been anyone spotted in them yet which got you really excited?
Louise Thompson: I am hoping to see my cast members Millie and Rosie both in a pair, they both have great style so think they would look pretty good rocking some POCKET jeans!
Louise Thompson: My style varies from day to day – it’s usually influenced on how I am feeling! I love getting dressed up for an event or party but at the same time I could live in my over-sized jumpers that I can relax in! Within my absolute capsule wardrobe I’d definitely have my Isabel Marant wedge trainers – they are so practical when I’m running around going to meetings and at the same time they give me that extra bit of height during the day! I’d also have some Pocket London jeans, a Celine t-shirt and a statement necklace from Mawi for a more causal style. I’d definitely ensure there was a killer pair of heels by Charlotte Olympia (nothing less than six inches!) and a LBD from Topshop so that I’d have an outfit if heading out in the evening!
Q: Do you both have a muse or anyone in common that inspires your designs?
Louise Thompson: We both really love Cara Delevingne and think she epitomises our brand well. She encapsulates the ‘London girl style’ perfectly that reflects within Pocket London designs – someone who will have fun with fashion and still look stylish at the same time! I think she would look amazing in a pair of our print jeans for AW13!
Q: Louise, are there any trends or fads that you’ve worn and regretted or anything you would never want to design?
Louise Thompson: I don’t think there’s anything I look at and particularly regret – at the time I would have thought it looked good at the time even if I wouldn’t wear it now! I do think it’s important to not blindly follow trends and fads though, as they will not suit everyone. I try and dress for my height and shape so what might look awesome on someone else might not look so great on me and vice versa! In terms of design, I think it’s important to keep on challenging yourself so there is nothing I would rule out at the moment!
Q: What’s next for you both – can we expect a full wardrobe of Pocket London in the future? Or a kids line for the new royal baby to wear?!
Louise Thompson: A baby line would be fun. I would love to see the Royal baby wearing some of our designs! But like Edward mentions, this is just the first step from our company Max De Courcy. We will definitely look to expand on this in future, building a whole brand which has various avenues to it; accessories, shoes, more clothing! We both love doing this so once we have finished university we will be able to concentrate fully on this and really expand and develop both POCKET and our fashion house.
Q: Louise, what would we be surprised to know about you?
Louise Thompson: One thing that people may be surprised to know about me is that I have been recently learning to skateboard and really love it! I have a glow-in-the-dark board who I have named ‘Turtle’ and I have to say, I’m getting pretty good at it!
