I've always loved dressing gowns, from the day my granny first wrapped me in her robe as a young child. It must be something about the way they make you feel, comfortable and relaxed but also safe and protected.

It's not something I gave much more thought to until the day I went to the V&A, where I was captivated by the housecoats displayed in a Pre-Raphaelite exhibition. Their beauty, craftsmanship and natural, flowing silhouettes were utterly inspiring.

Having spent two decades working in fashion ecommerce, I decided that now was the time to design my own collection of dressing gowns - pieces that would capture that same timeless elegance and traditional materials with contemporary patterns and colours.

Every piece in the collection is exclusively made to order in Britain, crafted from natural materials sourced as locally as possible. I believe in creating garments that are kind to the environment without compromising on quality or design.
