About Us

Curated Crowd is much more than a marketplace – we’re a platform built to connect independent designers with conscious consumers, all over the world. This is a call to change the way you dress forever.

Providing easy and direct access to the world’s best and most unique independent labels, Curated Crowd sidesteps the heavy revolving doors of the traditional fashion industry. A portal to inspirational, creative and conscientious brands, we disrupt the traditional catwalk-to-highstreet cycle of fast fashion, featuring only designers who follow their hearts ahead of empty trends.

Everyone’s got what everyone’s got, so we offer something special... With many of our brands designing and producing pieces in small quantities, plenty build limited edition collections or work on a made-to-order basis.

Sometimes, we know, only an encounter in person will do. While Curated Crowd’s online offering stretches our reach across the world, we’re committed to local as well as global accessibility. This is the reason we offer brands the opportunity to showcase off- as well as online, and our programme of London Pop Ups sits international talent in the city’s most bustling hubs. Curated Crowd is proud to bring both: tap-of-a-key convenience, as well as hold-it-in-your-hands experience.

Curated Crowd supports the growth of designers by hosting launch events – and providing digital marketing, personal styling, content creation, access to international manufacturers as well as PR services. Put simply, we nurture talent: whether homegrown or far flung, Curated Crowd always supports from the ground up.

Not just a Marketplace

We believe in fashion, and in designers with a story to tell.

We think of ourselves as a book, holding each of those tales together – every chapter building the narrative of design excellence. It’s a story we tell every day, providing makers and doers with the dedicated space to sell their work directly and at a price as fair to them as it is to our customers. Ultimately we care about creative talent, celebrating incredible designs and all the drive and vision that brought them into being.

Shopping with Curated Crowd makes customers into patrons of independent design.

Buying directly from the hands and minds which made an object, every customer builds on the last to establish new brands and empower craftspeople in an increasingly mass- produced world.

There’s strength in numbers: that’s why building our fashion community is so important.

While there are plenty of online marketplaces, Curated Crowd represents the antidote to big-name white noise. The clue’s in the name – rather than piling the shelves high and leaving customers to rifle through thousands of things they don’t want or need, our selection is meticulously curated. We only stock brands we believe in. And when it means that emerging designers and appreciative audiences find each other, less is definitely more.

Meet our designers and curators both online and offline.

We organise regular pop-up shops and trunk shows around the world. To find out where our next event is, make sure to sign up to our newsletter and follow us on our social channels.
