Exciting news Gang! We’ve joined forces with our pal Giles Deacon (BFF) to create a knitwear collection for his spring/summer 2015 London catwalk show.
Welcome to the jungle! The wild knitwear was lovingly hand-crafted by our Peruvian Gang and embellished by our UK knit force working in their own time and their own terms. (No robots!)
‘We love working with Giles because we love challenges. Our Gang has created very fine pieces, which involved a great amount of craftsmanship and attention to detail. Every single sweater is a piece of art translated into embroidery!’ Jade Harwood, Co-founder and Creative Director.
The Jungle themed collection featured oversized sweaters in our super soft Shiny Happy Cotton. Using intarsia and hand embroidery techniques, the theme being wild animals: a leopard paw as worn by Vivienne Westwood’s Granddaughter Cora Corré, and a stripy snake worn by Kirstin Kragh Liljegren in our colour palette of Nude Pink, Ivory White and Space Black Shiny Happy Cotton. Giles took a walk on the wild side!

All the best!
