Clingy is the passion project of Isobel Murray. Ex-mathematician and self taught designer.
All bags and things are made by my hands (and sewing machines) in my studio in Brunswick, Naarm/Melbourne, Australia.Clingy was born out of a dream to make beautiful things in a way that minimises environmental and social harm. Clingy thingies are designed to encourage self expression, self love and to gently help us to rethink our relationship with fashion and the planet.
Striving for the most sustainable practice is what keeps me motivated to continue creating. You might be able to relate to the feeling of hopelessness when you first learn about the harmful impacts of the fashion industry. I've found that working within tight constraints and embracing the slow fashion movement has me tapping into an incredible source of inspiration.
Clingy is on an ongoing journey of experimentation and learning and I welcome any feedback and suggestions you might have to help me make better Clingers.
Lots of love,
Izzy xx
