Dear Daph The Label

Dear Daph,

Finding the perfect words to honour such a beautiful mother and grandmother will never get any easier. You filled our lives in every way imaginable – you were the lady who passed on the art of dressmaking, who taught us the act of being a lady, and most importantly, showed us what love is.

You were the lady who always presented herself with such elegance; the lady who was never seen with a hair out of place; never left the house without her finest brooch, and never opted for a pair of pants over a high waisted skirt and button up blouse.

When blessed with such a lady by our side who has shaped us to be the women we are today, words could never express our gratitude or pay tribute to the legacy left behind. Therefore, it’s only fitting that we honour her with each garment we create and share with you in memory of our ‘Dear Daph’, as a label that represents where we came from, who raised us and taught us what we know. Each garment is a symbol of family ties that grow greater than material items, and considers Daph’s approach of long-lasting fashion, and her way of sustainability - “keep that, I might use it one day”.  

With love, forever & always x
