Goutte

Goutte is a fusion of artistry and wearability, founded by Argentine designer Ailin, now based in Mexico City. With a decade of experience, she explores unconventional materials to create conceptual yet functional designs.

Blending craftsmanship with the unexpected, Goutte presents a ready-to-wear mix with avant-garde designs that break through the noise of everyday life, offerting a deeper connection with the subtle and the sensible relms.

We developed the Shapeshifter technology, a wet-looking, glossy texture that behaves like water, flowing into any shape and then effortlessly returning to its original form. These visually striking pieces are specifically designed for our clients to feel empowered and comfortable at the same time.

One of Goutte’s core brand values is fair labor. For this reason, for some of the items we work with a sewing studio made up of skilled Mexican seamstresses, who give meticulous dedication to each garment. We hope to grow together.

James & Chet Rock

Chet Rock, a London-based brand, seamlessly blends heritage with modern streetwear. Named in honour of the founder's grandfather, Chet, who immigrated to London in the 1950s, our brand draws deep inspiration from his journey. Chet's story, from working in a rubber factory to thriving in the Petticoat Lane wholesale market, is a testament to resilience and entrepreneurial spirit.

Our collections pay homage to these roots, infusing classic workwear elements with the vibrant cultures of music and skateboarding that define today’s streetwear. One of our standout pieces, the occy trousers—originally made by our founder and made famous by David Beckham in the early 2000s—returns, reimagined with fresh twists for a new generation.

Chet Rock is more than a brand; it’s a narrative of legacy and contemporary style, crafting pieces that turn heads and tell a story.
 

Acien

Acien is a regenerative knitwear brand dedicated to creating biodegradable, organically certified garments that blend circularity with craftsmanship. Designed for women who value both aesthetics and ethics, Acien’s pieces combine plant-based fibres sourced from social enterprises, natural dyes, and heritage techniques. By collaborating with farmers and scientists to address climate challenges, the brand offers a unique fusion of luxury and environmental responsibility.

Committed to sustainability, Acien sources fully traceable regenerative fibres and utilises natural dyes derived from invasive plants and bacteria—reducing waste and promoting biodiversity. This approach merges traditional Spanish weaving with contemporary knitwear techniques, passed down from founder Silvia Acien’s grandmother.




Aen was founded by Silvia Acién, a Central aint Martins graduate who earned the LVMH Green Trail Award and grew up in a rural part of Almería, Spain. Raised on her parents’ organic tomato farm, she developed a deep appreciation for nature. With grandparents who were shepherds and parents dedicated to sustainable agriculture, Silvia spent her childhood in greenhouses, learning first-hand about ecosystems’ delicate balance and the vital role of biodiversity in local ecosystems.

At 17, Silvia moved to London alone to pursue her passion for design. She studied a Level 3 Diploma in Art and Design, graduating with First-Class honours, and then secured a place at Central Saint Martins to study Fashion Design with Knitwear, where she graduated with First-Class honours. Her final university collection earned her the prestigious LVMH Green Trail Prize and the Framework Knitters Award.


 
Shortly after graduation, Acien was invited to showcase collections and speak at events across Europe and Asia. Within months, the brand was featured at London Fashion Week, Hong Kong Fashion Week, India Fashion Week (in partnership with the United Nations), Dutch Design Week, UNESCO x LVMH, Tate Modern and many more. Acien quickly gained recognition, appearing in Vogue and The Wall Street Journal. Before launching her brand, Silvia worked in knitwear at Vivienne Westwood and LVMH, laying the foundation for Acien’s innovative approach to regenerative fashion.
