Our Philosophy

We do what we love, genuinely, everyday.

We find endless beauty in the imperfections, we read the patina and listen for the stories; the rich history each carefully chosen textile wants to tell. We research its path through time and take all of it into careful consideration.

We are two, a couple in every sense of the word. We live in collaboration and share a creative space. Our first collection was born in our home studio in the stillness of quarantine out of both creative necessity and curiosity. It was a moment of pure spark when we made the decision to adapt our focus from curation to creation. Being only two, we have the ability to be agile and untethered; not confined to a set structure, pattern or template. Our garments are not offered in traditional size ranges; and we allow the textile to dictate the end result from from the design of the collar and sleeves through to the French seams and hand-sewn button holes.

We share a simple but impactful ethos, to create in as sustainable of a way possible. Reclaiming and repurposing almost everything, from thread to timber.

We want to share our process; share the stories of the textiles that cross our path. Our collection is the cover of this history book, hand stitched and bound with love.

Off cuts and scraps become patchworked carryalls and jackets. Salvaged timber lines our walls. Tree branches have even been used to replace traditional retail display fixtures.

We are inspired by iconic workwear, as well as the well worn and well loved pieces in our own closets. We make a collection of one of a kind pieces that not only feel special but unfussy and effortless. Worn in and wearable not stiff or rigid, handmade from thoughtfully sourced textiles with a past life.

Almost every piece in our collection is handmade in our studio by Gary, with a small capsule collection made piece by piece in new York by our beloved longtime collaborator Angela.

This is us.

We wouldn’t have it any other way.
