Molly Goddard started work on this collection at the St Martin’s Library. Being back at the school I left in 2012
made me think about what I was trying to achieve when I started my brand. It was a time when
working in fashion, to me, involved making clothes on my own and trying to get stockists. Now, working
in fashion involves many things I wasn’t expecting—events, award ceremonies, promotion, social
media—it was nice to think about the simplicity of when I started and the passion that spurred on the
work at the beginning.

In a way, this collection is an ode to fashion. I worked with my stylist Alice Goddard, scouring through
the library, thinking about how we’d actually wear the pieces we coveted in fashion magazines—this
Charles James dress with that Ralph Lauren jumper; that Anna Molinari slip with this Cerutti coat.
We reminisced about pieces we’d owned as kids and teenagers—leopard print jeans we’d bought
at Gap kids in Whiteleys, screen print sporty knitwear from portobello, an exposed popper belt we
shared from Claire’s accessories—ideas you’ll see referenced or directly recreated in the collection.
We looked through the MG archive—pulling out pieces that had worked, and pieces that hadn’t
-restyling, reshaping, changing the fabric, refining. The result is a collection that feels nostalgic,
familiar, grown up, wearable, streamlined.
I chose to show this collection in my studio. Models will exit from our atelier, where the clothes are
made each season, into the space we normally use as a showroom. The space is basic, stripped
back to the bare minimum, the perfect setting for a collection that isn’t about drama or optics, but
wearability and they joy of dressing.
