Founded in 2016 & run by Belinda Jacobs

“I started this company after working in the industry for several years. I experienced first hand how hard the communication process was between a designer’s vision and getting a final-real life product in hand. Even for very established designers, miscommunications, mis-made samples, and production errors were the norm. I wanted to help brands bring their vision to life, with better results and less trial & error. Not to mention the environmental and social impacts we can have if we start developing better quality clothing with less waste.” 

Belinda has an honors degree from the UK in Clothing Design & Technology and has worked for various independent designers, start-ups, wholesale suppliers and blue chip retailers.
