(soon)
Three sets of hands. Zero conveyor belts.
The Curious Closet is a tiny label run by three friends. We started it because we got sick of seeing perfectly good fabric end up in a skip — and equally sick of "sustainable" brands that turn out to be the same factories with a green leaf stuck on the label.
So we made a rule. Every piece has to start as something else. A curtain, a sheet, a deadstock roll, a charity-shop suit, an old wedding dress. If it's already been made, we'd rather rework it than commission a new bolt.
The rules we (mostly) keep.
No new fabric
Deadstock, vintage and recycled only. If we can't find a fabric second-hand, we don't make the piece.
No factories
Everything is cut and sewn in the studio. The label inside is signed by whoever made yours.
No waste pile
Scraps become patches, patches become a quilt, the quilt becomes a future jacket.
No size runs
Each piece is made once, to the measurements of the fabric we found. Sizes are weird and that's the point.
Want to know how a piece actually gets made?
Step-by-step, from charity shop to envelope. It's the most interesting part.
