In parallel with producing our own garments, we also design and make bespoke swimwear and activewear for sports and fashion designers and brands.

Bringing your designs to life
From our purpose-built facility in Hackney, an area famous for its historical garment industry, we're doing things a bit differently. We truly value the skills of our staff and we're doing everything as sustainably as possible, from sourcing to manufacturing.
We spent a lot of time getting our product right and understand how important quality and how much attention to detail is required to create beautiful garments. We researched endless fabrics and materials. We met a lot of people. We bought machines, took them apart, then re-built them - we know what stitch works best to get the right amount of stretch for the best fit.
From premium recycled fabrics, chlorine-resistant elastics, soft threads, and all the way through to eco-friendly packaging, we can help source everything as local as possible from ethical suppliers. Our friendly team will guide you along the way to get your collection ready, all made in our eco-friendly studio using low-energy and cost-saving devices on 100% renewable energy.
With over 20 years’ experience in bringing products to life, we know how important it is to deliver on time and on budget, and will keep you informed throughout each step of the process. We may be small but this means we can be nimble. We can quickly bring your ideas to life.
