DESIgn Philosophy
We design with the female gaze in mind, valuing how women see their own bodies and beauty, rather than adhering to external, often unrealistic standards. That’s why we create items with the curved body as our archetype, offering options for various shapes, heights, and needs. Many of our pieces feature versatile and adjustable elements, ensuring a personalized fit and multiple ways to wear each item.
PREMIUM PRODUCTS
Our approach to designing collections is rooted in the belief that artistry elevates both design and fabric. Every silhouette, fit, and detail is thoughtfully considered, with fabrics chosen to meet our high standards of quality, premium value, and exceptional handfeel. To ensure the perfect fit and sizing, every item in our collection is meticulously fitted across multiple body sizes and rigorously tested by our team before earning its place.
Our commitment to craftsmanship extends beyond aesthetics. We believe it’s important for you to know where your clothes come from. That’s why we collaborate with certified factories in Portugal, partnering with small, family-owned businesses that have been passed down through generations. By working with these factories, we ensure fair working conditions, protect workers' rights, and uphold an ethical, positive production environment—all while maintaining the highest product standards.
SOURCING FABRICS
We create designs by using thoughtfully sourced materials. Our fabric portfolio includes low-impact options like ECOVERO™ Viscose, Recycled Polyester, and Certified 100% Organic Cotton, ensuring that our collections stand the test of time. The quality of the fabric is the foundation of every piece, and we believe in selecting materials that will remain wardrobe staples for years to come. Our design and product development team personally selects the fabrics we use, ensuring each one meets our standards for quality and handfeel.
Natural fibers
Natural fibers are textiles derived from plants, animals, or minerals, such as cotton, wool, silk, or linen. Known for their breathability, durability, and biodegradability, these materials are both a more eco-friendly option and comfortable.
Cotton
Cotton is a natural fibre derived from the soft, fluffy material of the cotton plant. As a fabric, it is durable, breathable, easy to care for, gentle on the skin, and moisture-absorbing.
Organic Cotton
Whenever possible, we use certified Organic Cotton. Organic cotton farming prohibits the use of pesticides, chemical fertilisers, or genetically modified seeds. This method has a lower environmental impact, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution, and soil degradation, while improving worker health.
SUPIMA® Cotton
For some styles, we use SUPIMA® cotton. With longer fibres than standard cotton, it is twice as durable, incredibly soft, and more resistant to pilling and tearing. It also absorbs dye better, ensuring rich, vibrant colours that last.
Wool
Traditional wool, often sourced from sheep, is naturally insulating, moisture-wicking, and odour-resistant. It regulates body temperature, keeping you warm in cold weather and cool in warmer conditions. Its durability and elasticity make it resistant to wrinkles and stretching, ensuring long-lasting wear. We frequently use wool blends to maximise these benefits, combining wool with other materials for enhanced performance.
Baby Alpaca Wool
In some products, we use Baby Alpaca Wool, which is sourced from the soft fleece of young alpacas. Baby Alpaca Wool is prized for its luxurious softness, lightweight feel, and superior warmth. It is hypoallergenic and lacks lanolin, making it suitable for sensitive skin. Its fine fibres create a smooth, silky texture that drapes beautifully.
Lana Merino Wool
Merino wool, derived from Merino sheep, is exceptionally soft and fine, making it comfortable against the skin. It is highly breathable, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating, making it ideal for both warm and cool climates. Its natural elasticity ensures a snug yet flexible fit.
Mohair
Mohair, sourced from Angora goats, is known for its lustrous sheen, softness, and durability. It is lightweight, insulating, and naturally elastic, making it resistant to wrinkles and creases. Mohair’s smooth texture and ability to hold dye result in vibrant, long-lasting colours.
Linen
Linen, made from flax, is a lightweight, breathable, and eco-friendly fabric. Flax requires minimal water and thrives in various climates, reducing the need for irrigation. Perfect for warm weather, linen wicks moisture, resists bacteria, and keeps you cool while remaining durable, quick-drying, and hypoallergenic. As a natural fibre, it biodegrades quickly, leaving no harmful residues, making it a sustainable choice for conscious consumers seeking both comfort and style.
Man-Made Fibers
Man-made fibers are textiles engineered from natural or synthetic sources, valued for their durability, versatility, and performance-enhancing properties.
Lyocell
Lyocell is a man-made fibre derived from wood pulp, typically eucalyptus, known for its exceptional softness, drape, and breathability.
TENCEL™
Lyocell by Lenzing AG, a more sustainable alternative produced in a closed-loop process that minimises waste. Unlike regular lyocell, TENCEL™ is made from responsibly sourced wood, ensuring a lower environmental impact.
Modal
We use modal for its light and silky handfeel. Made from beech tree cellulose, modal is known for its softness, breathability, and durability. Softer than viscose, it resists pilling, shrinking, and wrinkles while maintaining its shape and vibrant colour.
Micromodal
We also use Micromodal, a finer and softer version of regular modal. Micromodal fibres offer a more silky, premium feel against the skin. Lighter and more fluid in drape, micromodal excels at wicking moisture, keeping you comfortable and fresh.
Polyester
Polyester is a manufactured synthetic fibre known for its versatility, durability, and resistance to wrinkling. We use polyester for its longevity, ensuring styles remain in your wardrobe for longer.
Recycled Polyester
When possible, we opt for recycled polyester, made from fashion waste, fishing nets, and plastic PET bottles that would otherwise end up in landfills. Instead of producing virgin polyester, old products are given new life by being re-spun into recycled polyester fibre.
