About us

Thank You Have a Good Day was formed in early 2019 by Alicia Yates and Gary Smith.   

We began as a shop.

In February of 2019 we opened an experimental brick and mortar in Brooklyn NY; carefully considered and curated, playfully designed and operated.

Thank You Have a Good Day (the collection) was introduced in April 2020.

Four years on, in April 2024 we launched an atelier— a creative space where we work and play, host and visit, touch and try on.

We create collections once per month, of both one of a kind and limited edition pieces, using exclusively existing textiles; antique and vintage, as well as carefully sourced end of roll and deadstock fabrics. Our mission is to create as thoughtfully and sustainably as we can.

Our silhouettes are relaxed and intended to be worn a bit oversized.  Each piece in the collection can be styled together— interchangeable almost, depending on occasion.  Versatility and comfort are key elements. Each garment is rooted in a simplicity of shape, utilitarian silhouettes transformed through the hand feel and detail of each textile.
