London may finally have an antidote to fast fashion - Valentina Karellas. Knitwear unlike any other, at Valentina Karellas every single piece is a one-of-a kind. By using surplus yarn from large factories (that would have otherwise gone to waste), they ae able to create lifelong lasting entirely unique London originals. “Every piece has a story; every item is named after an obscure London road. This is our journey, come and join us.” - Valentina Karellas.

Each of their pieces has been carefully hand-crafted, no two garments will ever look the same. A modern feel to London’s rich heritage of quality manufacturing.
