Paris-based atelier Astier de Villatte is renowned for their whimsical ceramics. Founded in 1996 by Benoit Astier de Villatte and Ivan Pericoli, these ceramics are crafted in a traditional pottery style passed down from generation to generation — putting forth one-of-a-kind objects both romantically bohemian and practical in their everyday use.

The yarn, considered as an endless line, is ideally kept intact by rejecting the use of scissors in the making of the garments. They work around the idea of a “knitwear wardrobe”, living and working in Florence, Italy.

Junji Koike is driven by sustainability and environmental consciousness. His bags are distinguished by exceptional leather treatments and buttery-soft finishes. He draws upon the crafting traditions of 18th century Europe, and often repurposes antique jacquards and Japanese kinsha silks from the mid-1900s in his clothing collections.
Elena Dawson works with only a handful of retailers, and her designs are driven by cloth, rather than sketches.
Her experience as a seamstress after university greatly influences her work. “I draw on the knowledge I learned at the tailors still now in the way I make clothing—when you work on alterations you are really tearing the guts out of the garment, performing a sort of autopsy—you really get to see a garment at its most vulnerable point. Observing this state of semi deconstruction in the making of a garment or shoe is what I like to retain in my finished work."
All pieces are handmade in the UK.
