From specialist leather shops to high-end retailers who sell a leather jacket or skirt to overpriced garments and faux leather with little durability, there is no shortage on the availability of leather goods. It has always been a fundamental texture found in every wardrobe. But what was found to be lacking were labels specialising specifically in high-end, affordable leather products. Rather than brands that just do great pieces of leather here and there in their collections. Free @ Heart is the answer.
After becoming frustrated by the quality of leather with a price point that didn’t match, Free @ Heart owners, Gloria Tsotsis and Bridgette Whittle founded their. Although both have experience in the fashion industry, they do not consider this of great importance: they put emphasis on years of hard work, and applied their business acumen to their own personal venture.
Inspired by their love of natural elements and the tactile use of leather, Gloria and Bridgette have established a reputation of being cultivators of beautiful and handmade leather garments. Commenting upon their inspiration, Gloria says, “our designs had to be stylish and fun, display quality craftsmanship, and have longevity”. Likewise, Free @ Heart emphasises the uniqueness of the affordability of their products – separating them from other retailers, Gloria comments, “we will always ensure our customer gets the best quality for the best price.”
Free @ Heart has a simple yet compelling philosophy on what they want to achieve for their customers – they want to make women feel empowered in their clothing.
“We spent a lot of time thinking carefully about our customer and creating designs that will make them feel confident and stylish. We also wanted to make the pieces comfortable to wear.”
“Pieces the customer can really have fun with and look to Free @ Heart when they want to feel and look amazing,” says Gloria.
Their range includes leather jackets, skirts, shorts and accessories. Materials are handpicked from specialist overseas manufacturers who are renowned for their consistent quality and high ethical standards. These businesses have lovingly handcrafted each garment for Free @ Heart – each piece designed to be a worthwhile investment. Not only is your Free @ Heart leather guaranteed to last long, but it will remain on-trend through the years. The clothes are all hand-tailored and outside of regular sizing and they can be fitted individually at an additional fee.
There’s lots to look forward to at Free @ Heart. The team are planning on growing the range and eventually introducing a men’s line. The ultimate goal though is to stock Free @ Heart worldwide.
