No New: What We Learned from a Month Without Launches

Slowing down to see what truly matters.

In July, we pressed pause.
No new products, no new collections, just space to reflect and re-centre. To ask ourselves what fashion can look like when it’s not driven by constant release cycles.

Now, as we step into August, we wanted to share what we discovered in that stillness.

We rediscovered the beauty of what already exists.
Without the distraction of what's next, we turned our attention to what’s already here. The quiet staples and timeless pieces that make up our existing collection. The designs that don’t shout for attention but prove their worth season after season. We fell in love with these pieces all over again, appreciating the way they move, layer, adapt and endure. It reminded us that longevity isn’t just a product feature; it’s a design philosophy.

We visited our factories and reinforced our ‘why’.
Immersing ourselves in the spaces where our garments are made was a grounding part of this pause. It allowed us to connect more deeply with the people and processes behind each piece and admire the careful craftsmanship, the pride taken in every stitch.
By not asking our factories to switch to something new, we gave them the space to focus even more deeply on what they already love making - refining techniques, elevating quality, and honouring the care that defines slow fashion.
It reaffirmed something we’ve always believed: that great clothing isn’t rushed into existence. It’s carefully, deliberately made.

We created space to listen.
Not rushing into a new collection gave us the chance to really listen to our customers, our community, and our own creative intuition. We heard your love for the pieces you already own. We heard your desire for more of what you’ve come to rely on. And so, instead of launching something entirely new after this pause, we’re adding fresh colours to some of our most-loved styles. Because sometimes, evolution is more powerful than reinvention.

We took our time. And it paid off.
Behind the scenes, our team has been designing even more slowly and thoughtfully than usual. Taking the time to refine details and ensuring every piece we release truly earns its place.
This month, we’ll be introducing just one new design: a single, intentional release at the end of August, an exciting update to one of our most cherished designs. And in September, a small, meaningful collection will follow.

What we’ve learned is this:
Excitement doesn’t have to come from volume, creativity doesn’t require a constant chase, and fashion doesn’t have to be fast to be fulfilling.

More isn’t always better. Sometimes, it’s just more.
This past month reaffirmed our belief that restraint can be radical, especially in an industry built on perpetual newness. And we’re carrying that mindset forward.

So, thank you for being with us through this pause. For honouring the pieces you’ve heard us talk about so many times before. For showing us that thoughtful fashion doesn’t have to shout, it just has to matter.

Here’s to less noise, more meaning and clothing that earns its place, over and over again.
