I’m excited to introduce some new fantastic vintage fabric finds to the collection!
With abstract, painterly prints in rich colours and beautiful textures, they are reminiscent of early-mid 20th Century art works, I am therefore dedicating this new season to the Modernist movement. I have named the fabrics in a tribute to female artists who were trailblazers of their time, I’ve been enjoying researching these incredible women and will be sharing their stories over the coming weeks.

Inspired by the late 1960’s hippy phenomenon, this new collection brings you sweeping maxi dresses, puff sleeves, 70’s collars and some fantastic original vintage floral prints. All new stock is available to buy directly from Naomi so get in touch with any enquiries or come along to an event or studio visit and get groovy with some serious Flower Power!

I often describe my fabric buying sessions as ‘Treasure Hunting’
It’s increasingly hard to source unused, still on the roll, gorgeous, high quality vintage fabrics, so when I find them, they feel like rare treasures!
Also, by sourcing fabrics already in existence, I am avoiding any harmful manufacturing and reducing waste, which makes them even more precious
Watch this space or follow me on Instagram for new additions to the fabric collection or get in touch with any requests. Swatches can be sent out on request.
There are lots of new additions to the NPB collection this season: The Tie Strap Top + Frock, The A-Line Skirt, The V-Neck Top and The Shorts as well as some new (vintage) prints for you to mix and match.
New stock now ready for the Artists’ Open House weekend, May 11/12, come by and have a look or get in touch for a custom made piece!
Choose a garment, choose a fabric and your NPB item will be made just for you!
I source rare vintage fabrics - fabrics still on the roll that have been left forgotten. I search them out and give them life, and in doing so, I avoid the use of newly manufactured fabrics - a process that can be very damaging to the environment
I’ve always loved vintage, not only for it’s uniqueness but for it’s longevity and quality. I love that my customers feel special in their NPB as well as confident that they won’t see everyone else wearing these beautiful prints!
Each fabric is very limited- sometimes there’s only enough for a couple of garments, sometimes I manage to score a whole roll- but when they’re gone, they’re gone forever...
I’m always happy to post out swatches so you can feel the fabrics before placing an order- or pop along to the studio to have a look!
Transeasonal has become a bit of a buzz word - perhaps because we are now more aware of the consequences of throwaway fashion. Many of us prefer to invest in special pieces that we will continue to love through the seasons and year after year, finding different ways to style them as we go.
The Skirt is a perfect example - wear with a t-shirt and denim jacket in spring, with sandals and a sleeveless top in summer, add a jumper and brogues in autumn and a polo neck and boots in winter. It can take you on holiday, to the office and to a party - you can't get much more versatile than that!
In the words of Vivienne Westwood: "Buy less. Choose well. Make it last. Quality, not quantity"
The skirt pictured here is the MIRO Full Skirt, other options available made to order, more info here:
