Meet Diane Kennedy

When I began my career in fashion I was working for brands that catered only to regular sized women. As a plus size woman, it was hard to find clothes that I wanted to wear in the beautiful soft and natural fabrics that I preferred. There was a lot of polyester! I knew that I needed to do something about this.

With over 40 years of experience fitting women, I truly understand how to make clothes that fit and flatter the curves of a woman's body. The proper fit makes all the difference (our pant fit is legendary).

Since 2007, we've offered timeless designs, expertly crafted with the highest quality fabrics, that will fit the curves of YOUR body

"Being passionate about nature and the health of our planet, I decided to build a brand on the foundation of sustainability."

Always very hands on, I’ve chosen to remain an integral part of the entire process from design, through patternmaking, sizing, and production. We control quality by opting to make and dye our textiles here in Canada in order to maintain the highest standards and create the signature fabric our customers have come to love.

The mindset of "quality over quantity" is important to me, and has been since the beginning. I've always wanted to keep my production local and Made in Canada, despite the options to go overseas.

Being passionate about nature and the health of our planet, I decided to build a brand on the foundation of sustainability.
I've accepted that I would never be a huge company because there are no massive profits in doing business ethically in terms of people and quality. I work directly with our local factories to ensure that the workers are paid fair wages and support our local suppliers. This is Slow Fashion.

As a small women-owned business I am proud of all my environmentally conscientious practices. It isn't always easy.

I hope my clothes bring you the comfort and lasting quality you deserve. This is clothing I feel good about wearing myself... and sharing with you.
