About the Seller

What is your inspiration for designs that are being featured?
We are inspired by nostalgic playful party scenes from the roaring 20s to the Classy 50s. Our designs are glamourous with a dose of attitude.
Education/Experience:
Both designers and founders of the brand, Kate and Vicky, have had long passion towards fashion since childhood. Therefore we have come a long way from different part of the world to the fashion capital London to pursue our dreams to becoming fashion designers.
We met at Central Saint Martin’s UK and became friends while bonding over our mutual interest in fashion. The culture shock that we experienced from life in the UK became a catalyst for our determination to succeed in the face of adversity. During university, we worked for various major fashion brands and gained invaluable experience along the way while greatly enjoying ourselves.
While we loved our time at luxury fashion companies, we had different plans for our own fashion brand - to create high-quality clothing at reasonable prices, because luxury CAN be for everybody.
What has been your biggest struggle breaking into the world as an independent fashion designer?
The biggest struggle has been to balance the costs of using high-quality materials. We strive for affordability without compromising on quality, so it has been a challenge.
