A Little About Me

Hi, I am Emma Stevens, the owner, designer, seamstress, and everything in between at Untamed Fernie.

I take pride in designing and creating affordable, beautiful long tops to wear over leggings, made from super soft, breathable Tencel Fabric.

The Untamed message is all about being confident, fun, strong, and playful. I want my customers to look in the mirror, like what they see, focus on the positive, and feel proud.

It's about looking good, feeling great, and doing it in a positive way that always brings a smile to your face.

How It Began

I was frustrated with not finding stylish, flattering, and long tops to wear with tights, so I learned how to make my own.

I enrolled in fashion design school near Calgary, AB, to learn everything from scratch, as I didn't even know how to sew a straight line. Having spent the last 10 years travelling instead of sewing, it was quite a change for me.

Fashion school was a crazy, intense, and exciting experience that challenged me more than I imagined.

After graduating, I moved to Fernie, BC, excited to design clothes for real women and Untamed was born.

Now, let's get to work on making those long tops!

Clothing You Can Live In, Feel Good About And Look Fabulous In

I am dedicated to creating practical, comfortable, and unique clothing for everyday life that are fun and flattering.

I am passionate about supporting local communities, protecting the environment, and offering high-quality clothing at affordable prices for women of all body shapes. I aim to help every woman feel confident and beautiful in what she sees in the mirror.

I love travelling around western Canada, showcasing my unique creations at various shows and festivals and having some of the best chats with you all.

My mission in designing high-quality, flattering pieces is to use Untamed to help the environment, promote slow fashion, and enhance body confidence for everyone. Easy, right? hahaah

...And, of course, to make your bum look amazing!

Proudly Slow Fashion

Untamed is proud to be part of the Slow Fashion movement. We believe that you can find affordable, high-quality, and fabulous clothing that is also good for the planet.

Slow fashion is a movement focused on improving sustainability by challenging the industry's social cultures. It encourages retailers and consumers to take a more ethical approach to fashion.

As the industry accelerates and its carbon footprint grows, there has never been a more critical time to consider your purchasing choices.

... I want people to think about their shopping habits and how their choices affect others and the planet.

I want to encourage the consumer to buy fewer clothes of higher quality and made to last instead of being disposed of after a few uses.

Good For You And The Planet

The advantages of slow fashion are countless

It lasts longer;
It offers a unique style;
There is less pollution;
It has less impact on society;
It helps grow the local economy

Currently, 80% of all clothing produced eventually ends up in landfill sites.

Good Quality That Feels Fabulous

The fabric used at Untamed comes from Kendor Textiles in Vancouver. We admire their commitment to environmentally friendly practices. You can learn more about their dedication here.

We custom-make each order, so it may take a bit longer for your design to reach you. However, this means we never end up with excess stock that would contribute to landfill waste.

We take pride in minimizing waste and keeping the environment in mind in every aspect of our business.

We don't create clothes for specific seasons or events; instead, we design clothes that are suitable for year-round wear and tailored to fit your lifestyle.

Don't cover up; wear clothes that fit, flatter and make you feel fabulous.

The sleeveless designs are perfect in summer as a beach cover-up, out for lunch or a BBQ with friends. Add a long-sleeved top underneath or a cute jacket over the top.

The sleeved ones are perfect all year because they are so cozy when it cools down in the summer, after boating, camping, or skiing, out for lunch, having an evening picnic, or running around after the kids or dogs.

As a bonus, the fabric is super soft, the designs are incredibly flattering, long, and comfortable, and they make your bum look amazing!

...Oh, and they were designed and made with love in Canada by ME!

Untamed is Eco-friendly clothing you can live in, feel good about and look fabulous in

As we grow, we are committed to incorporating more and more environmentally conscious ways to operate our day to day business. We love this beautiful planet, and we want to continually produce cool, functional ethical pieces that are fabulous for you and the environment.

Beautiful Art. Super Soft Fabric. Flattering Shape. Made In Canada.
