The Arabella

The first iteration looked great on paper and fell flat in person. The sides didn't cover enough, the diamond pattern wasn't quite right, and the neckline stopped too soon. So we kept going. We added fabric to the sides with just enough crinkle for bust support. The diamonds went through more rounds of adjustments than anything else in the collection: too big and the suit lost its hold on the body, too small and it started to pull. The neckline was elongated. When it finally all came together, we knew we had something beautiful.

The Julia

Julia is a real person, a friend with a bigger-than-life personality and a bust to match. She has always struggled to find a suit that holds the way it should, and when she tried this one, she said it was the best she'd ever worn. We'll take that. The criss-cross neckline, the side hooks, the tassels - all of it came from designing around what she actually needed. She was our brief, and everything else followed.

The Trixie

This one started with a feeling we couldn't shake: what would it take to make a one piece actually feel open? Not heavy, not covered-up, not like you're wearing something constructed. The cinched waist came first, then the open back, because something had to breathe. The high-cut leg, the curved neckline sitting just low enough to be chic enough - each decision pulled the suit further away from what a one piece usually feels like. When it was done, it didn't feel like a one-piece at all. That was the whole point.
