About
Driven by the philosophy of designing functional and beautiful clothing that resonates deeply with people's lives, Lee Mathews offers seasonal mainline, homewares, and accessories collections with a focus on quality, wearability and craftsmanship. The brand evokes intelligent expression, honours sustainability and design integrity; and seeks to provide beauty in everything it creates.
Lee Mathews is a creative who was an illustrator and art director for Vogue Australia. She began making clothes for herself and her friends on the kitchen table, upgrading to a small workshop in Sydney’s Newport when demand increased. By retaining the core belief that she should simply, ‘make good things,’ Lee Mathews and the brand has navigated its way, quietly but determinedly, to be a global fashion force selling not only locally in Australia but through respected international platforms as well. Lee Mathews’ collections are designed, patterned and sampled in Sydney, Australia - where the company is still 100% owned and operated – including print development for silk, linen and cotton pieces.
Sustainability Efforts
Lee Mathews designs revolve around high quality, natural woven textiles. They source signature cotton and linens from Japan, silks from China, wool from Australia and Italy and cashmere from Italy. They aim to work with small mills who are experts in their craft.
Lee Mathews use natural textiles as they believe natural fibres are far superior for their exceptional characteristics; they are soft, durable and extremely lightweight. They are proven to be less toxic to our bodies than synthetics, and breathe with the wearer from summer to winter. Given the correct care, their garments cut from natural fibres can last generations, to become keepsakes, as all good design should be.
Lee Mathews does not use fur, down, exotic animal skin or angora.
