LF Markey (London, England)

LF Markey is a London based fashion house that makes elegant utility inspired clothing for the creative and practical woman.

Founded in 2008 by Australian born Louise Markey, LF Markey has established a signature no-nonsense aesthetic of simple, geometric shapes, bold colours and naïve handpainted print designs. Markey graduated from renown fashion school Central Saint Martins in 2007 after designing for luxury labels.

Originally starting with a small collection of work-shirts reinterpreted in silk georgette, the label quickly blossomed into a full collection of ready to wear always including the signature piece; The Boilersuit.

LF Markey also stocks accessories from other likeminded labels including French sockmakers and leather toolbag manufacturers; Bonne Maison and Sassi (respectively) and Hungarian backpack makers, YKRA (with whom we have an upcoming collaboration).

From London, to Paris, Seoul and Sydney, the designer is widely lauded for her ability to reinterpret wardrobe staples through distortion of shapes and intricate finishing.
