Back at Badminton Horse Trials for our fifth year—and it still feels just as special.
There’s nothing like starting the fair season here. Seeing familiar faces, meeting new ones, and having the chance to share what we do means so much to us.
Every piece we create is handcrafted here in the UK, and we put our hearts into making clothing that’s not only beautiful, but made to last and be loved for years to come.
Your support truly means everything—thank you for being part of our journey. Please come and say hello.
We're in the country living

Playful, full of texture, and brimming with character — the Little Chick Top is where simplicity meets fun. Adding a smile to every outfit.
Designed and made in our Kent studio, this loose-fitting piece slips seamlessly into everyday dressing — with just enough personality to elevate the ordinary.
3 colour ways - milk, mauve and chocolate checked linen.
Wishing you a wonderful start to the week.

What an amazing day we had yesterday.
We did our photo shoot for our new collection, 'Birdy', and here are a couple of behind-the-scenes moments. It honestly couldn’t have been more perfect — cold, crisp air but beautiful sunshine, all set in the most idyllic location.
Feeling so grateful for days like this and the incredible team that made it happen.
Thank you @codiephotos , @astridiwantyouinmylife@isisdavidge
Can’t wait to share it all with you soon…
