]]> Since the birth of high fashion, there have existed strict codes for what can be worn on the runway (and even stricter codes for who can wear them). Here to tear those rules apart is emerging fashion house, Ester Manas, whose sustainable garments and body-positive ethos are pioneering the way for a high fashion world that includes everyone.

‘One size fits all’ isn’t a term you’ll hear thrown around much in the fashion industry, but in a bid to move away from high fashion’s size 6 or nothing memo, Ester Manas designs clothes that will stretch to fit anybody. The Belgian designer was inspired by her own experience trying to find clothes that looked good and fit well, tired of the lifeless brown and beige garments available for plus-size women, Ester set out to design clothes that say ‘we exist too!’


Manas’ goal was beyond achieved at her recent FW22 show, where ruched materials in an explosion of hyper-vivid colours were worn by diverse and inspiring women who brought a fresh perspective on who high fashion is ‘for’. From Paloma Elsesser to Ariish Wol, the label dedicates itself to providing opportunities for women the fashion industry have ignored in the past. Aside from those on the runway, industry experts like Amina Muaddi and Ajshe Berishaj have recently been spotted in Manas’ sexy knits and colourful dresses, giving the label the recognition and credibility it deserves.

But, self-empowerment isn’t the only ethos Ester Manas has dedicated itself to, taking on another pressing issue in the fashion industry, the label is devoted to making sustainability a priority. By using deadstock materials to produce their stunning designs and creating them just 20 minutes away from their warehouse, the label is perfect for dressing fiercely, yet, responsibly this summer.

A highlight of their available products is the label’s heart-shaped clutch. While inclusive and sustainable, no label is complete without an ‘it bag’ to match, and Manas’ blush pink purse might just be the bag we fall for this season. Meanwhile, ruffled dresses, cut-out tees, and heart-shaped hoops are proving themselves our summer necessity. Shop our favourites below!
