The collection began with a winter trip to upstate New York. In a wooden cabin, we found an old set of cards. Sitting around a table, we asked questions, listened, and spent time together.
Aged wood, faded cream, moss green, deep brown and navy stayed with us. So did the familiar fabrics of the room: checks, stripes and knits, brought together through years of use.
Checks, stripes and different textures meet in loose shapes that wrap, overlap and layer.
We begin with cloth, then cut, arrange, join and weave it again. Changing the direction or density of the material changes how it falls—and the volume it can hold.
gathered at the neckline
At Anra’s neckline, gathering and hand weaving bring the cloth into a raised collar. The fabric opens below it into a loose A-line shape.
room to move
Avery holds its extra volume at the back. Pleats open with movement, giving shape to the soft oatmeal cotton blend.
a stripe made from pieces
For Myra and Lola in brown and blue, two colours of organic cotton are joined into stripes before the garments are cut. The seams become part of the rhythm of the cloth.
Myra gathers into small pleats; Lola opens into a full skirt.
For the lookbook, we invited people of different ages to wear the collection. Each body gives the clothes a slightly different shape; together, they share the same room.
