Our Story
Began with a young lady called Annie Kalambay, who started to sew fabric masks during the Covid19 pandemic using recycled 100% cotton t-shirts from her wardrobe, and started to play with fabrics to create extraordinary patchworks clothes with recycled materials.
Annie whose love for colour, texture, and patterns created a spark of creativity that shaped her dream of sewing to become her main reality income. With her Fashion Designer course inspiration from Arts University of Plymouth, the nature lover, and the tales of eras, Annie set out on a journey to create a brand that would redefine environmental friendly and climate change.
