Our Journey
1998
Beginnings
We open our London boutique in 1998 with a single rail of cashmere, silk blouses, and personal fittings. The promise is simple: timeless pieces, meticulous alterations, warm service. Early loyal clients become our community.
2005
Recognition & Community
Word of mouth grows. We launch small in-house capsules—pared-back tailoring and knitwear—while hosting styling evenings and handwritten thank-you notes. In 2012, the online shop extends the boutique’s spirit beyond our street.
2020
Craft, Care & Resilience
We deepen relationships with mills and local makers, favoring traceable materials and small runs. Repair & Care becomes part of our ethos. Through 2020’s lockdowns, appointments, doorstep deliveries, and virtual fittings keep the conversation with clients alive.
2025
The Final Chapter
We refine to made-to-order, smaller drops, and archival edits—quality over quantity. Despite careful succession talks, no successor emerges who can carry the shop’s ethos forward. In 2025, with gratitude and clarity, we close the boutique—not for lack of love, but because there is no follow-up to continue it as it deserves.
To our dear customers and friends,
Thank you for 27 years of trust, conversation, and shared moments of style. What began in 1998 as a small boutique became a community because of you. As we close in 2025, please know your warmth shaped every collection and fitting. May the pieces you took home continue to be worn and loved.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Henry & Grace
