To us, it's also about creating pieces that are well-loved & well-worn.
And we've created each and every one of our pieces to be just that.
Working with our small team in our home studio, we carefully bring our vision to reality. Every garment is designed in Australia, ethically produced and handcrafted in Sydney in our small-scale, in-house factory.
See what makes our designs unique & stand out from the crowd.
Natural fibres breathe.
And that's why we choose to use them as much as possible in all our designs. This makes them more cool to wear on those hot summer days as they allow your skin to breathe, promising all day comfort.
We're not big on trends.
We create designs around the classics. Style favourites that we've known & loved decade after decade. Pieces that we know will be worn & loved by your daughter today & loved just as much by her younger sister or friend that she passes her clothes on to.
There's nothing worse than buying a new outfit only to have your teen outgrow it the next week. We know how fast teens grow. We also know they grow when they are ready.
So we've designed our styles to be as flexible as possible so they grow with your teen & they get as many wears as they can. This means elastic & ties wherever we can.
We get how important it is that clothes have pockets, so we have pop them in wherever we can. Even in our dresses!
They're hand-y {get it?} for those moments where you just need to stash your bits & pieces - or just your dirty tissues.
Neutral colours are the building blocks of a great wearable wardrobe. They make mixing & matching super easy.
A seasonless wardrobe is a sustainable wardrobe. The beauty of being able to mix, match & layer pieces easily, means that you are outfit-ready rain, hail or shine.
We aren't a brand for anyone.
We are a brand for the cool girls who want to look good & feel good & do it in a way that is kind to people & the planet.
Our designs have been made especially for the teen age. Not too big. Not too little. But just right.
