The story so far.
A + A // OUR WHY
The beginning…
After 20+ years of working within the fashion Industry, the A+A team wondered if their aspirations had wained to become something mechanical and consuming.
Through many musings with like-minded people, and attempts to reconcile our ever changing world, the team envisioned a collection of clothes which could be intuitive to the wearers needs. We design intelligent clothing with multifunctional properties to celebrate the cross-functional nature of our modern lives.
Our team are inspired by the stories of everyday individuals fighting their own battles daily. This became our muse to create something with integrity, longevity, beauty and relevance.
As the working hours get longer and time spare more sparse, we wanted to create clothing of exceptional quality that empowered the wearer with confidence and resilience to master the day ahead. Clothing that also maintains a delicate footprint, that leaves the world a little lighter during it’s creation.
Asher and Archer represents the sense of constant curiosity and the eternal search for something better than before.
A + A // WHO
Asher and Archer are a collective of creatives who are passionate about Australian fashion. We are inspired to create for individuals of all shapes, sizes and stages of their life, and are passionate about sustainability, our impact now and into the future.
Our objective is to dress our alliance with quality, confidence and versatility to prepare
them for whatever their day ahead holds.
A + A // SUSTAINABLE PHILOSOPHY
Asher and Archer maintains a sustainable approach to fashion design. Our garments are made to order which means we have no waste or excess stock.
We create our garments with specialty performance fabrications allowing you to wear your clothing more, meaning you will require less clothing and house a smarter, tighter wardrobe.
Asher and Archer use 100% biodegradable packaging which is 100% recyclable.
A + A // FABRICATIONS EXCLUSIVE & STRICTLY LIMITED
Our collections feature specialty designer fabrics purchased from excess stock lines, giving this ‘scrap’ fabric new life. This allows us to salvage something existing rather than creating more fabrics. This means that many of our garments are strictly limited and once they are gone there are no more.
A + A // AUSTRALIAN MADE
We are passionate about the Australian fashion industry and work with local mills to create Australian made fabrics and support Australian textile mills and fashion businesses.
All Asher and Archer garments are made in Australia from a variety of specialty fabrications sourced in Australia.
A + A // BESPOKE
As all garments are made to order in our Melbourne studio we can accommodate for custom orders and express orders. Please contact us via enquiries@asherandarcher.com for more information.
