Demur at London Fashion Week: Isabel Manns
Isabel Manns is driven by a desire to deliver quality at an accessible price-point while offering customers ‘two outfits for the price of one’ with her reversible garments. Made in Britain, Isabel works with sustainably conscious seamstresses in London who ensure the fabric is cut economically to minimise waste. Each item offers a plain and printed side in classic styles, allowing clients multiple options of style and function within one garment. This should help us to reduce the number of garments we collect as all pieces are designed with the intention to last a lifetime, not to be thrown away after one season.
Isabel’s AW20 collection is inspired by the huge rocks in the Costa Brava region in Northern Catalonia. Like Salvador Dali, who was inspired by this rocky region, Isabel has translated this inspiration into paintings and then into digital designs that can be seen throughout the collection.
Isabel Manns holds sustainability so high in regard she made a ‘tree’ of all her waste from the collection, please see below the images, the waste is kept to such a minimum.
