Naomi Harper

Naomi Harper is a high end clothing label specialising in limited ranges of thirties inspired sailor dresses and sweaters. She uses Scottish cashmere and lambswool and everything is handcrafted in Scotland by a small family run business in Hawick. Naomi started designing six years ago and is largely self taught. She is based in Kings Cross London and her new nautical collection was inspired by the idea of being an "urban sailor". The old grandeur of St Pancras station contrasting with the grittiness of the canal outside her  studio led her to combine the sophistication of a past age with an urban twist. No yacht needed just a sense of fun and adventure! All profits go towards the running of a school in Afghanistan where Naomi is director.
