THE FOUNDERS STORY.

After more than a decade working in the fashion industry, Georgina and Catherine found themselves at the heart of the same challenge: independent founders had the ideas, but not the full support system needed to turn them into reality.

Georgina, with experience in design and creative direction, and Catherine, spending years in operations, logistics, and garment technology, were both freelancing for start-ups. They often found themselves hitting roadblocks - offering their individual expertise, but unable to provide the complete service founders truly needed.

When they met on a project, it quickly became clear: together, they could offer something much bigger. Georgie brought the creative vision, Catherine brought the operations structure and technical know-how, and both understood how much founders needed a joined-up, end-to-end solution. Just three months later, 916 Studio London was born.

Since launching, they’ve channelled their combined industry experience into the 916 Method: a full-service studio that takes fashion founders from concept to collection, offering innovative, bespoke designs tailored to each client. Their approach goes beyond design and manufacture - building out a trusted network of specialists including web designers, manufacturers, and fulfilment partners - creating a true 360° service for brand growth and scaling.

The results speak for themselves. In just a short time, 916 has helped founders create sell-out collections, secure wholesale stockists, innovate with multiple seasonal ranges, and even land features in publications like Vogue and the Financial Times. With no marketing spend, the business has grown purely through reputation, referrals, and word of mouth - proof that the service is tried, tested, and trusted.

At its core, 916 Studio London is about hand-holding when needed, empowering when ready, and always tailoring solutions to ensure every brand stands out as unique.
