Collection

DANA LEE BROWN is a collection of genderless clothing and bespoke fabrics crafted from soil-to-loom in close collaboration with farms and mills. Each piece features a hand-chronicled label that tells the story and process of the many hands involved in bringing our textile goods to life.

We warmly invite you to visit our Store/ Showroom on Bowen Island, BC, where you can explore the collection and gain insight into the farms, fibres, and processes behind each custom textile.

DANA

Dana grew up in the Pacific Northwest before moving to New York to design menswear. There, she founded her eponymous label, DANA LEE (2008-2017), before taking a five-year hiatus from the garment industry.

Her deep-rooted interest in local production and minimalist design has led her to this broader exploration of “local,” encompassing agriculture, mill preservation, and bioregional design.

Dana is now grateful to live and work on Nexwlélexwm (Bowen Island), which is situated on the ancestral and unceded territory of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation).
