The founder
Barbara spent two decades inside the world's great fashion houses, from Armani to Alexander McQueen, before founding Martina London from her Notting Hill studio. Every piece is cut from Italian fabric and sewn by hand, one at a time, in the European ateliers she has worked with her whole career. Including the deep pockets she could never find anywhere else.
The details




Our Atelier
Crafted in London
Each piece begins as a sketch in our London studio. We source our fabrics from Italian mills whose looms have woven silk for the great houses of Europe since the 1800s, and every garment is then made by hand, one at a time, in the European ateliers Barbara has worked with her whole career.
The result is clothing that needs no introduction. It simply fits, moves, endures, and always has pockets.
Fashion expires. The sea does not. Neither does a good pocket.
