Our story

This was heard, not invented.

It started in conversations, woman after woman, planning, pregnant, postpartum, telling us the truth about their bodies, their days, and the clothes that had stopped being made for them.

Every pregnancy was different. Every story was its own. What they shared was the feeling of being unseen. We listened, at length, to the women the market had stopped designing for and then we started making.
