Behind the Design - The Marrakesh Blouse

Behind the Design - The Marrakesh Blouse

Inspired by my trip through Morocco, the Marrakesh Blouse carries the soft, sun-washed colours of ancient medinas and hidden riads.  Her silhouette draws from the billowing desert tents of the Sahara, draping gently over the body while holding shape. 

More than a shirt, the Marrakesh Blouse is a piece of Morocco woven into something to treasure for years to come.

Repeat Offender

What if you didn't need more clothes — just a new way of looking at what you already own?

See Ya 2020

2020 left ‘us’ battered and a little bruised; but he stood by my side, holding my hand saying ‘we’ll be ok’.  So now it’s my time to hold your hand – it nearly broke us, but we made it through and I genuinely feel we’re coming back stronger.
