Every garment here has a story — and I know where it came from, who made it and the conditions it was made in.

The Ready to Wear pieces you see are from AL's existing stock, originally made in small batches with our amazing team of seamstresses. Rather than letting perfectly lovely clothes sit unworn, I'm giving them a new life — either just as they are, or by turning them into one-off-ish Heidi Hacks.

Things are a little different at AL these days. It's now just me, Heidi, making, hacking, packing and generally finding my feet in my new, more balanced AL era. 🩷

Same clothes. Same values. Just on a much smaller scale.
