Our mission is to promote size-inclusion in Luxury Fashion. Therefore, we put curvier women at the heart of our design process to provide them with unique, flattering, and well-fitting designs. The brand aesthetic is based on creating sculpted and sharp silhouettes using different textured textiles to add dimensions and contrasts to a garment. In a society where women feel pressure to look a specific way, designing pieces that enhance their sensuality and confidence is at the core of our DNA. Our collections are tributes to powerful women of all sizes that do not try to fit in the society they live in; they make their own rules. All our pieces are meticulously hand crafted in England using the highest couture techniques that will allow your pieces to stand the test of time.
