Garments made to endure
Care and repair
Natural fibres, cut and finished by hand, are made to be worn for years and mended when they need it.
The cloths, and their care
Linen
“Breathable, drape-able, soft and loveable!”
Her linen pieces are pre-shrunk and very easy care. Linen washes beautifully and, in her words, just gets better with use.
Lambswool
“Recommended care .. if needed, handwashing and hang to dry.”
The Genevieve Coat is Scottish lambswool, fully lined in linen. Wash it rarely, by hand, and hang it to dry.
Harris Tweed
“Classic, timely, and totally functional, vintage Harris Tweed Jackets from the ’70’s-’80s transformed into up cycled vests… original label of authenticity inside each vest.”
Each tweed piece is upcycled from a vintage jacket, with the original Harris Tweed label inside. Ask Wendy about caring for a tweed piece.
If something needs mending
Wendy stands behind each piece. The aim is for the garment and the wearer to go on loving each other for as long as is sustainably possible. If a hem, a seam, a pin tuck or a line of stitching needs attention, write to her.
