Easier isn’t necessarily better. That pretty much sums up the philosophy of our founder, Emma Gage. As a child, Emma was exposed to the issue of human trafficking through her family’s work to combat it. As a grownup, she studied design in college and then combined the two passions. Emma believes that, to truly enjoy the clothes we wear, they need to come from a place of love and honesty.

A two-time winner of the YMA Fashion Scholarship as well as the Kate Spade and Company Scholarship, Emma’s designs are focused on joy and freedom, each skillfully made piece expressing her own gender-fluid vision of slow fashion. Refusing to allow extremely high standards for sustainability get in the way of her unapologetically exuberant vision, she creates seriously unhinged luxury collectibles with unrestrained love for the planet and its people.
