Clyde & Clara was born from a lifelong love affair with textiles and threads that tell stories.

As a child, I spent hours beside my grandmother Ann, a seamstress as we would sort through her fabric closet. The colors, the textures, the way each piece whispered of possibility… I was spellbound. I dreamed of one day having a fabric closet of my own, overflowing with inspiration and beautiful colors.

Thirty years and countless adventures later, that dream has come to life. My closets are now filled with textiles gathered from markets, mountains, and villages around the world, each one carrying its own soul and story.

Clyde & Clara is the expression of that journey and a personal celebration of craft, texture, and the timeless beauty of handmade fashion. Every piece is sewn with wanderlust, nostalgia, and the wild hearted spirits of my parternal grandparents, Noel and Anne and my maternal grandmother and grandfather - Clyde & Clara.
