HOW IT STARTED

As a little girl in the 80s, I would spend hours playing dress-up, mixing and matching vintage pieces from my mother's closet with my own creative flair. Those moments sparked a lifelong love for the unique beauty and history behind each garment. Today, I bring that same passion into my brand, rescuing timeless pieces from being lost in landfills and giving them new life. Every piece tells a story—of craftsmanship, sustainability, and the joy of preserving fashion that deserves to be cherished for generations.

HOW IT'S GOING

Every week, I search for gently used treasures at local estate sales, thrift shops, and vintage stores, selecting items that carry character and history. For pieces that can be laundered, I use The Laundress products for a high-quality clean. Delicate, dry-clean-only, and antique garments are carefully steam cleaned to preserve their beauty and integrity. However, I still recommend having certain delicate items dry cleaned before wear and again before storing once it's season has ended. Once an item is sold, it’s promptly removed from the site to keep the inventory updated. Items are shipped out twice a week, ensuring efficient delivery to their new homes.
 

 

Thank you for stopping by and supporting a journey that blends style with sustainability. Together, we can make fashion timeless and kind to the planet.

With Gratitude,
