Meet the Founder
I'm Charlotte and welcome to my world of ruffles & bows! I’m the founder, designer, and seamstress behind this brand, and I’m so glad you’ve found your way here.
With over 10 years of experience as a seamstress and a degree in fashion design, I’ve spent countless hours honing my craft. My passion for fashion runs deep, but it’s the principles of slow fashion and sustainability that truly guide my work. I’ve always believed that clothing should be more than just something you wear—it should tell a story, celebrate individuality, and empower the wearer. That’s why I’ve chosen linen as my primary fabric—natural, sustainable, and beautifully timeless.
At the heart of my designs is a focus on femininity. I love the elegance of ruffles, the charm of bows, and the softness of delicate details. These elements are central to my brand, creating pieces that feel not only special but also empowering and confident. I want every garment to make you feel your best, no matter your shape, size, or style.
I’ve always loved drawing & fashion from such a young age and the “what do you want to be when you grow up” answer was always the same. My superpower I believe is seeing a garment I’m obsessed with and deconstructing it in my head to create the pattern.
Starting this business during the 2020 lockdown with just £250 and a dream was no easy feat, especially as a working parent managing school runs and all the daily challenges that come with it. But the drive to create something meaningful kept me going. Every piece you see is made to order, designed and carefully crafted by me in my atelier in South Yorkshire, England.
My commitment is to celebrate you—the unique, confident, and beautiful individual that you are. Every garment I make is a reflection of that belief, and I hope it brings you as much joy wearing it as I get from creating it.
Thank you for supporting small, sustainable fashion. I can’t wait to share my creations with you!
With love,
Charlotte
