The Jocasta Collection
Sister by Studio Ashby are proud to announce the launch of The Jocasta Collection - Sophie Ashby’s debut fabric capsule - a line-up of worldly fabrics inspired by crafts, flowers, foliage and ancient traditions from across the globe.
The Jocasta Collection pays homage to Jocasta Innes and her former home in Spitalfields, a glorious Georgian-era house that Sophie shared with her family and where the collection was first conceived. Known for her dedication to reclaiming past treasures and trinkets, the collection pays tribute to Innes’ creative legacy and spirit, a love letter of sorts to the woman who helped inspire its beginnings.
Sister by Studio Ashby called upon the textile expertise of forward-thinking manufacturing brand Yarn Collective to bring the vibrant collection to life. Known for their natural and recycled textiles and climate-positive ethos, the process began with materials Sophie has leant on for look and versatility her whole career. Over time, Sophie began collating and adding favourite fabrics from her travels. An explorative stage of design was followed by long months of concept development. The collaboration has resulted in a final colour palette and design that unites Sister’s unique aesthetics with Yarn Collective’s revered textural quality and feel.
