The Untamed Message

The Untamed Woman strives to be the best version of herself by being kind to herself, others, and the planet. She is both soft and powerful, practical and spiritual and believes that with hard work, anything is possible.

The Untamed Confidence

I want the Untamed message to be confident, fun, strong, and playful. I want my customers to look in the mirror, like what they see, to look past the negative and be proud of the positive. We all have insecurities, so let's eat healthily, get some exercise, be kind, and wear clothes that fit and make us feel fabulous.

But sadly, even in this day and age, finding healthy and natural-looking models is incredibly hard. I believe in the natural body. Working out, YES, eating healthy, YES, and having a treat now and again, definitely YES. But you have to be healthy, and you have to work at loving what you have. I don't believe skinny (I hate the word skinny, by the way) is sexy; I think a Confident and healthy body is.

The Green Untamed

Clothing has become disposable. As a result, we generate more and more textile waste, causing the fashion industry to become one of the worst polluters globally, and I want to do my part to change this. I want my customers to feel good about how my designs make them look and feel and feel good about their shopping decisions.

The slow fashion movement encourages people to think about their shopping habits and how their choices affect others and the planet. It encourages the consumer to buy fewer clothes that are of higher quality and made to last instead of being disposed of after a few uses.

Continuing to purchase new clothes will not change your life in any real way, but if we all start switching to slow fashion, the world will truly benefit.

I have been doing a lot of research into the type of fabric I use and where I get it from. I buy my fabric from this fantastic company called Kendor Textiles in Vancouver, and I love their passion for doing everything they can to help the environment.

The Untamed Versatility

I have always known I wanted to design clothing for every day, not every season. With all Untamed Collections, we can proudly say that you can wear them all year round. We don't design clothes for a specific season or event; we design clothes you can wear all year.

I am super excited about Untamed's direction. We are committed to incorporating more environmentally conscious ways to operate our day-to-day business as we grow. We love this beautiful planet and want to continually produce cool, functional, ethical pieces that are fabulous for you and the environment. 

Buy less. Buy better quality. Research. Mend clothes and Reuse.

At the moment, I am working hard to find ways to use up the scrap pieces of fabric from my designs and think of things I can make with them. Maybe some funky Untamed cushions are in the cards. I am super excited to see what I can come up with, so watch this space.

Remember, I am not saying don't go shopping because it's fun; I only want you to think about your shopping habits. Consider why that top is that price and how your decision will affect other people and the planet. 

 Be kind to yourself, others and the planet because we all deserve some love.
