Designed and crafted with thought and consideration, LDV is a slow fashion brand that delivers timeless and elegant separates for a customer who values quality, sophistication and tailoring.
Sourcing the finest materials from around the world and working to a high standard of quality craftsmanship, LDV delivers collections customers can wear for seasons to come. Emma travels regularly to Europe & Asia to source design inspiration and the perfect fabrics she knows her customers will covert. Each garment is meticulously crafted, with attention paid to every detail, from the stitching to the bespoke buttons and trims.
“My vision is to create collections that will withstand the test of time. When I launched the brand in 2018, my desire was to offer classic, dramatic pieces that echoed quality over quantity, but above all versatility. That's what continues to set LDV apart.”
Sustainability
LDV strongly supports local, small batch production and quality craftsmanship. As the brand grows, a commitment to slow fashion and sustainability remains integral to its core values.
The seasonal collections consist of separates that can be mixed and matched to create a variety of stylish looks. They offer everything from dramatic taffeta skirts and wide leg trousers to floaty maxi dresses and elevated basics. Always searching for something out of the ordinary, LDV collections feature metallic fabrics, lace and rich linen as well as wool blends to create versatile wardrobe solutions that can be dressed up or down at home or while travelling.
LDV has quickly gained a following among style-conscious women who appreciate the quality of their clothes. Known for luxurious fabrics, impeccable fit, and timeless designs, LDV has a boutique/showroom in Sydney’s idyllic Watsons Bay, an online store that ships worldwide, and is available at a curated list of boutiques throughout Australia.
We are a slow fashion brand that sources remnant fabrics and short run production so when limited edition styles sell out, they are only ever restocked in new fabrications.
