Here at Couverture & The Garbstore, we encounter many artisanal crafts and practices from all around world. However, none seem to have the wide-reaching impact of those from Japan.

We sat down with fashion editor-turned homeware curator Louise Roe to discuss everything from industry transitions to home styling tips.

Portobello Road is always bustling with tourists, but within this bubble is a plethora of independent stores that hold the community together.
In this series, we’re highlighting some of our favourites, starting with our go-to coffee shop: Cable Co.

Based in Melbourne, Australia, BAINA produce contemporary organic cotton towels designed to uplift your bathroom spaces. We caught up co-with founder Anna Fahey to discuss the label’s origin, inspirations, and bathroom must-haves.

We are thrilled to announce that Early Majority will be taking over the Couverture mezzanine from Thursday 20th – Sunday 23rd April to celebrate the launch of its SS23 collection.

Shot out and about in our local area around Portobello Market in Notting Hill, West London, discover our editorial featuring the latest delivery from Porter Yoshida & Co.

With the Spring/Summer 23 collections steadily rolling out, it’s time to introduce some of the new and exciting labels joining the Couverture roster this season.

Born at the intersection of cutting-edge technology, environmental consciousness and democratic design, Early Majority has seemingly emerged from nowhere, fully formed and intent on breathing new life into the fashion landscape.

Our latest editorial takes inspiration from the organic shapes and unexpected textures found throughout nature including pieces by CLED, Wwake and new brand Miiken.

The trick to staying cosy this winter is by investing in the right layers.

To celebrate the arrival of cosy new winter collections at Couverture, we invited brand consultant and digital creator Brittany Bathgate to pop by the store for a catch-up and coffee whilst she was visiting West London from her hometown of Norwich.

Providing well-made wares with a personal touch, Japan's ROTOTO never fails in supplying top tier cosiness for your toes.
