Our Story

We launched in 2017 with the vision to create a conscientious, distinctive label; merging art, design and street style.

With a futuristic and sporty aesthetic, each garment easily transitions from day to post-work. Our tailoring and attention to detail is a staple of our brand, and the structure and innovative cut of each garment enables you to creatively tailor your look to your own individual style. Each garment is custom-made and hand-crafted in Dublin; minimizing waste and supporting our circular and ethical approach to fashion.

We are driven by Sustainability. Each design incorporates varied combinations of fabrics-resulting in a unique graphic, colour-blocked design, appeal. The jersey and woven fabrics are organic and Oeko-Tex certified*. We have introduced Tencel (also known as lyocell) and modal fibers, as they are produced using recyclable, earth-friendly solvents. Blended with cotton, Tencel adds wrinkle-resistance, with the lustrous feel of a silk.  As we move forward, we seek to constantly research new textiles such as the use of hemp and seaweed combinations, without compromising the inherent properties we build into the garments.

We seek to find the perfect balance between trends and your lifestyle-representing your values with our luxe materials, functional designs and sustainability initiatives.
