We think of ourselves as an international family-run business that embodies our founders’ commitment to creating timeless collections for the modern woman. What started as a company of two has grown into a close-knit team of thinkers, creators, and innovators, taking care of our clothes, each other, and our community. Split across the UK and USA, our team is 85% female, making us proud to be a brand for women, by women. We are guided by two core beliefs: the pursuit of quality in everything we do and the importance of looking after one another. We promote diversity and inclusivity as central parts of the culture we are building. We pursue quality in everything we do.

Data-driven decisions and purposeful actions. We base our decisions and actions on data and reason, not on hope. Our brand is timeless and valuable. Our brand is our most valuable asset, and we treat it with the utmost respect. We recognise that our brand will outlive us and strive to enhance its value through everything we do. We prioritise long-term growth over short-term gains, ensuring the longevity of our brand's reputation.

We believe the best form of marketing is to make a better product. Let word of mouth be the most powerful marketing channel. Our product is defined by the quality, not price. We deeply appreciate and value those who choose to consume our brand. We understand that the company we keep reflects our brand's integrity and reputation.

We grow our brand by empowering others. We aim to empower and support those around us, fostering growth and creating meaningful connections. We are accountable for our actions and strive to make a positive impact on our environment and communities.
