About us:
Unmade is driving a textile revolution by reinventing the knitwear industry through a one of a kind concept that enables unique production on an industrial scale. By creating cutting edge technology that captures expert knit knowledge in their advanced software, bespoke garments are effortlessly designed online and produced to order from the company’s Somerset House HQ.
Unmade takes its moniker from the idea that no garment is complete; it is not made, until you are involved. While the software (Knyttan) is complex, the process is clear: simply manipulate a design online before sending it directly to a knitting machine, which transforms the model into an exclusive made-to-order garment.
“We are creating something with a meaningful purpose. If you own a product, you should feel some level of responsibility for its impact, and people now expect to know the origin of their clothing. We no longer want disposable fashion; we want considered garments that we love,” says Hal Watts, co-founder of Unmade.
