New ways to pre-order


We are very excited to be able to be bringing you our sell out jeans relaunch! After issues with our previous supplier, we have found a new one which can firstly match our previous denim quality and opens the door for some great new styles AND more denims in the future.


Previously we have run pre-order via our website, this has led to some confusion at times about which sizes are in stock and ready to ship out and which sizes are on pre order. So we had an idea. To help provide transparency and clarity and make keeping everyone updated from one central point easier, we havedecided that an external site is the best way to go.



There are loads of great reasons for doing this. Keeping pre-order items off the website means you know how long you need to wait, gives you confidence in our production of these items and their deliver-ability by separating them from current stock. It means all the funding is held separately, so you know where your money is going. We can update the project in one place and you can see other people’s questions too.  So if you’re not sure about something you can check to see if anyone else has asked the same thing, or if we’ve provided an answer by updating that bit of information ourselves.



We’ve put together some exciting rewards which offer a treat to all purse strings. We know you may not be able to afford a pair of our jeansin one go, so we’ve put in options to enable you to support us right now, so that  you can get a pair in the future. 



We can take more than our goal but if we don’t hit our target, we don’t get any of the funds and its back to the drawing board. We’re confident in this approach because we believe that firstly, you guys love what we do enough to support us, but also that you love what we do enough to share this project and spread the good word. The more people who pledge and share the quicker we hit our goals and the more we can offer you. 




Backing a project is more than just pledging funds to a creator. It's pledging your support to a small independent business that helps to bring their big ideas to life. You’ll not only get the item  you pledged for, you’ll know you’ve been instrumental in helping us reach our goals and being able to bring you more and even better styles it the future.

    1. Yes! Thank you so much......well there being petite ones first off depends on how much we raise.
      If we hit our goal of £6000 that's Hug Me Baby's and Le Wilds restocked.
      If we get upwards of that we can start to get more styles in production straight away.
      Right now I can't say a clear, yes becuase I'm not 100% sure on the figures we'll be looking at.
      When we come to production time, I'll be sure to check in and confirm style and size.

  2. Your jeans look gorgeous. Any chance you'll expand to plus size?

    1. Hi Ray, I'm sorry I didn't see this previously.
      We're a small company and are always balancing our customers requests, our wants and plans and what we can actually offer.
      We currently offer 6 sizes from a 24" to 35" waist, with 3 styles, each has 2 leg lengths and 2 colour options, making 72 options on our jeans.
      Sadly we can't afford to extend this yet and our experience of seeing customers try items on, we feel petite needs to be catered for before we progress to plus size.
      I'm sorry it means they're not for you yet, we are aware and we are looking to cover everyone in the future.....
      If we could have all of the designs made that we have in our heads we'd have a wearhouse the size of a football pitch!
