Set up in 2008 by me Claire Watson, miki sources stylish and contemporary design, clothing & accessories, sustainably and responsibly made.
I want to provide people with timeless pieces that go against the current ‘throw away fashion’ trend combined with a selection of trendy items that bring that extra something to your wardrobe whilst insistently sticking to our ethical principles.
If you are like us then being surrounded by good design and gorgeous clothes makes you happy. We want to be the change we want to see in the world. This means making sure that the people who make our products are also happy, and that from crop to final product the best environmental practices are used.
The name
Why Miki? Miki is a Japanese name meaning 'beautiful tree' which to me summed up what we were trying to achieve; a harmony between the natural and the beautiful.
Why Organic? For me it refers to the philosophy of the shop - how the business (and me as a person too) have evolved since the beginning and also the feel, style and pallet of the collection. We also sell lots of lovely certified organic things too!
Miki are looking for new contributors
At Miki we are open to new contributors. If you are an artisan, crafts-person or designer who would like an opportunity to have your products on our site, please email us at info@miki.uk.com with photos of your work and some info about you.
We are also constantly looking for products that combat against climate change by either the use of renewable energy or carbon offsetting. For more information on our environmental ethics please click here.
