Gillian Stevens founded her brand in 2011, driven by a desire to translate her visual storytelling from photography into a more tangible form. After nearly a decade spent behind the lens, capturing stories through light, composition, and emotion, she found a new and intimate medium in clothing design. For Gillian, clothing has always been a powerful vehicle for expression—a way for tones, proportions, and texture to tell a unique story through movement and come alive on the body.

Gillian’s passion for her work is inseparable from her personal life and her role as a mother. She designs with her children in mind, driven by a desire to set a meaningful example through the use of natural fibres and responsible production. It's a personal mission to craft pieces that honour the planet and the hands that make them.

Gillian’s collections are a love letter to vintage design. She finds inspiration in the small, timeless details—from the rich tones of yarn-dyed linens to the delicate stitches of a button placket or a hint of lace trim. This is more than just a nod to the past; it's an admiration for heirloom quality, a belief in cherishing a garment for years and one day passing it on.

Gillian's truest inspiration comes from the women she knows, and she is endlessly inspired by the way they navigate the world, often drawing from the strength of the role models in her own life. She believes clothing should honor this journey, offering comfort and confidence without compromising on style. This personal connection is what drives her to create pieces that women can truly live in—clothing that allows them to move freely, feel at ease, and express their own unique stories.
