Palava is an independent clothing brand founded by illustrator and creative director Bryony Richardson. We believe clothes should be made to last, made with care, and made in a way that respects both people and the planet.
We make as much as we can in the UK, working closely with British mills, machinists and makers so we know exactly who makes our clothes and how. Where UK production isn’t possible, we partner with trusted manufacturers who share our values.
All Palava pieces are made using natural, biodegradable fabrics — no polyester, no plastic blends and no greenwashing. We’re particularly passionate about British wool and thoughtful material choices.
Print is central to Palava. Every design is created by hand and rooted in storytelling, colour and a sense of humour. Our clothes aren’t about trends or disposability, but about helping women feel confident and comfortable in what they wear.
