BEES
are natures little wonders. Pollinating everything, giving us food and flowers and thus rich colours, textures and fibres. Light and elegance, alive and abuzz.
&
BONES
are the sturdy yet delicate structures that make up all of us. They are our limbs, allowing us to reach and hold and move. They are our homes, safe keepers of our hearts, lungs, wombs, and minds.
Bees & Bones is a collection of ideas, art, feelings and fibres formed into clothing.
The design of our natural, architectural, and personal worlds is the inspiration that seeds the colours, shapes and movement of the clothing.
B&B is conceptualized, designed and sewn in Victoria, BC by Brooke Macdonald with help from studio assistant Anabel Sargent.
Creating began because of a lack of simple, fashionable and sustainable clothing options in my community. When I started Bees I wanted to make clothing that was comfortable, stylish, simple, and bold. I wanted to create pieces that I couldn't help but wear all the time. I'm intrigued by the relationship between lines, shapes, bodies, places and spaces. I want to explore those relationships. I want Bees to explore what that means for clothing. Fashion, art, necessity. Whatever you want it to be, Bees & Bones is created to be wearable, fashionable, lasting, and a unique collaborative collection that you want to wear all the time
