What does Lucy & Yak do?

Lucy & Yak is a UK-based sustainable clothing brand founded in 2017 by Lucy Greenwood and Chris Renwick. The brand specializes in colorful and comfortable apparel, particularly dungarees, and is committed to ethical production. Lucy & Yak aims to blend style, joy, sustainability, and compassion while fostering a strong community. The company began with the founders crafting tobacco pouches from reclaimed fabrics during their travels and selling vintage clothing from a van. They identified a demand for ethical dungarees and partnered with a manufacturer in India to launch their Original Dungaree, which quickly became popular. With a focus on playful and inclusive fashion, Lucy & Yak produces its clothing in small factories in India, Turkey, and the UK, prioritizing fair pay and sustainable practices. The brand emphasizes creativity, community, and compassion, encouraging self-expression through its diverse range of products. Lucy & Yak has a flagship store in Brighton and another location in Cambridge, reflecting its vibrant and fashion-forward ethos. The brand has experienced significant growth, expanding its team and exploring opportunities for further development.
