Celebrating 10 years of Varley.
As Varley marks its 10-year anniversary, co-founders Lara and Ben Mead sit down with Louise Roe at their new SoHo store to reflect on their journey.
Watch the full interview on WellSaid linked in our bio.
Confidence isn’t always loud. Sometimes it’s quiet. Sometimes it’s simply the feeling of recognising yourself again.
In June last year, I was diagnosed with lymphoma. The months that followed gave me a very different perspective on the word “confidence.” I’ve realised that how we look is often deeply tied to how we feel, and when so much is out of your control, holding onto the parts of yourself that still feel familiar becomes incredibly important.
I’m grateful to now be well and in remission, and incredibly proud to share Varley’s partnership with Look Good Feel Better, a charity that supports people facing cancer through care, confidence, and practical workshops.
What really stayed with me was the warmth and compassion behind everything they do, helping people feel more like themselves at a time when life can feel anything but familiar.
As part of the partnership, we’ll celebrate Varley’s Day of Confidence on Saturday 20th June, with 100% of proceeds from our UK stores on King’s Road and in Marylebone being donated to @lgfbuk
I’m looking forward to bringing our community together to support the incredible work they do.
Lara Mead
Co-Founder & CCO, Varley
