The Rose Strength, meeting gentleness
The Rose first appeared last autumn in our House Check, and quickly became a favourite. Amy designed her to hold both sides of the season’s story: strength meeting gentleness, guard meeting grace. A stand collar and clean lines for the strength; soft ruffles for the grace.
This season she returns in Stained Glass, with a bias-cut skirt that moves as you walk and deep pockets hidden in the side seams.

Named for the light through old church windows
Slightly tailored at the waist, with a ruffle running down the front. The ruffle softens the check; the bias-cut skirt lets it move.

The cloth
Stained Glass.
A check of our own.
Named for the light and colour of old church windows.
Sit in a church on a winter morning and the windows change the light: deep blue, then red, violet and pale gold, falling across the pews. Stained Glass carries those colours on a dark ground of navy and green, crossed in fine lines, so it reads as one rich colour from across a room and opens up as you come closer.
We had it woven in Irish linen for Kept for Good. It comes in three shapes, the Rose Dress, the Hallowed Blouse and the Amelia Trousers: wear one with something plain, or two together.

One pair of hands,
start to finish.
Every piece is cut and sewn in Belfast by one of our sewists, who sees it through from the first cut to the last stitch.
We keep our making close to home on purpose. Belfast was once the linen capital of the world, and the skills that built it are rare now. Making here is how we keep them alive.
Need it by a particular day? Let us know by emailing us or leaving a note at checkout.
Also in House Check Where the Rose began
Before Stained Glass, the Rose was made in House Check, our own navy military check. The check is matched across every seam, with a navy square running straight down the centre, front and back.
