Founded by Ailsa Brown and Melissa Bowden. Launching Autumn 2020.
We both adore simple, comfortable, beautifully designed clothing.
As friends we have always enjoyed going to places which have been carefully curated and lovingly thought through. We enjoy the simple things in life, a delicious baked treat, a wild country walk, all kinds of music, a cosy evening and fresh air.
Often we have talked about creating something together, particularly a product.
bea, was formed through a want to keep busy during a tumultuous time and the desire to create. We sought to offer comfort and reliability during a time of unknown. Garments that allow you to move with ease, prints that bring happiness.
Using block print fabrics and working with Raj, our textile supplier from Jodhpur came at the right time for him as well. His work had been dramatically reduced due to the lack of tourism in 2020 and he was able to give us the time to develop the sourcing for the brand.
We believe we all have a moral obligation to not create more harm to our bruised planet. Our choices are sustainable, our approach is responsible.
All these somewhat negative components have come together positively in the creation of a brand which celebrates the need for versatility in life.We have created multi-purpose, day-to-night wear for women and children which is relaxed in fit and comfortable without compromising on style.
Prices start from £22 for kids and £32 for womens.
