Brand Mission ☆゚.*・。゚

My design manifesto is very karmic. I am but a vessel to make the space for unwanted things to shine. I believe in doing so in a primal way. First step is hunting … ripping apart old garments and discarded items to make anew… gathering … tools trims trinkets… to aid in recreation. I feel deep empathy for items that have been left behind by their previous owners..

Uglymess is here to give them a home with love and maybe help others understand the misunderstood

I am dedicated to using upcycled materials within my design process. This includes deadstock waste fabrics in combination with components taken from discarded garments.

Reuse, Transform, Reimagine.
