Artisanal finery made sustainably.. Maximum abundance with minimum waste

All of our work is hand cut and custom made to order

Unlike most fashion brands we don't outsource our production. Our underwear and swimwear is all cut out and made piece by piece, by hand in our workshop in Hackney, London. We use responsibly sourced modern performance fabrics with vintage trims, recycled cottons, hand made organic cottons and eco fabrics from UK suppliers. Nothing is wasted and we don’t dull our styles down to cheapen for mass manufacture. We like to be free to include all sizes and to be playful with design so small scale making is the best. We’ve got 20 years sewing experience and work with care and respect. Wait times vary from 2 to 8 weeks according to garment and current demand

Oh my goodness, when the box arrived yesterday I was so excited, I nearly cried at how beautiful the lace of my Wedding lingerie is, and the gorgeous ballerina set is just amazing. Every woman needs your underwear, she may not know it,but she does. Thank you so much. Xx
