W.twoCo-Founder
Jan. 2020London Area, United KingdomW.two is a brand born of a love affair with the Aegean Sea and the Pacific Ocean. Heavily inspired by the white clays of Mykonos, their sunbaked hills and stone patios and the crumbled corals, reefs and sands that stretch for miles at home, in Australia. W.two is for the landlocked women who left their heart in Mykonos too, hiding their heart under a trench coat, for now. Founded by sisters Georgia and Lia anchored to their life lived together amongst the streets of Notting Hill and their love of the oceans they hold so dearly to them. W.two’s soon to be released signature capsule collection is timeless, versatile, simple. ‘We believe in chic fashion that doesn’t cost the earth. We create pieces which can be worn again and again, season after season, both day and night – true wardrobe staples. Our designs can be worn by all women in all sizes, in every walk of life. We believe clothing should be inclusive and make women feel and look great’
