We find joy in discovering more and more artisans and designers locally and from around the world and the beautiful textiles, they create. We enjoy the challenge of constantly creating new and more delicious colour combinations. Many pieces are made in store and some within a 30 mile radius of Canterbury by our Violet Elizabeth tailors. Due to the rapidly increasing popularity and rise in demand of our unique and exciting brand we are now working in collaboration with some of our artisans and beginning to build sustainable production overseas. The combined experiences of working on Savile Row, Venetian tailoring and London fashion has lead to a unique combination of traditional silhouette and styles in bold prints and vivid colours utilised to create the unique and quintessential range we have all come to loveRead their story
