MY STORY

My name is Katie, I founded Loft & Daughter in 2019 after my career as a fast-fashion buyer left me with a passion to right the wrongs of the industry I left behind.

I may be a one-woman band, but Loft & Daughter is a collaboration of heartbeats from all over India.
You will often hear me saying "we" because Loft & Daughter would not exist without these wonderful, talented craftspeople, whose ancestral craft brings Loft & Daughter to life.

It starts with wanderlust.
In 2016, I quit my job in fast fashion and, with a deep sense of unease with the industry, I embarked on an adventure around the world. It was the magic and artistry of India that planted the seed of inspiration: what if we stopped chasing trends and started honouring & celebrating the people and stories behind meaningful pieces...?

Building soulful connections.
In 2017, I returned to India, this time with a fierce belief that beautiful things can give back too. I spent the next few months tirelessly selecting organisations to help build a brand that positively impacts people and the planet.

Breathing life into ideas.
In 2019, alongside my wonderful makers and partners, I was able to bring Loft & Daughter to life.  Made from recycled, re-purposed, and organic materials, our pieces honour techniques passed down through generations, whilst protecting the planet for future generations.

& Giving back with gratitude
In 2020, we became a proud member of 1% for the planet, a global organization that connects dollars and doers to accelerate smart environmental giving.

In 2023 we became B Corp Certified, proudly joining a community of businesses that meet high standards of social & environmental impact, reinventing business as a force for good.

We’re excited to continue giving back to social and environmental enterprises as we learn and grow.

It's a tale of slower, fewer, and kinder.
