Vol. III x CQ Studio

Two London independents. One with the fabric. One with the design discipline. A collaboration for S/S '26.

Pedasss Atelier had spare fabric. Handwoven and hand-dyed by artisans in Indonesia...textiles made with too much care to simply be left in a box.

CQ Studio's Cassie Quinn came for the story behind the textiles. Her award-winning London design lab, as featured in Vogue Business and Wallpaper, is built on the belief that fashion shouldn't waste what it already has. When she learned about the history of Lurik and Jumputan — the looms that have been running since the 9th century, the artisans who map patterns in pencil before dyeing and painting dot by dot — she wanted in.

The result is our Volume III Summer collection. Reworked fabric, given new shapes by someone who understood exactly what it was. A small collection of pieces designed for your summer plans. Comfortably dressing you from office to bar, brunch to wherever's next. Made from textiles that already existed.

LURIK
Handwoven in Central Java on hand-operated looms. A technique practised since the 9th century. Cotton is handpicked, spun, dyed & woven. The stripe isn't printed, it's woven into the cloth, thread by thread.

JUMPUTAN
Tie-dyed in Solo by 2-3 artisans working the same cloth. Stones tied, submerged, dried and painted dot by dot. Look closer and you'll see the pencil marks where they mapped the pattern before they began.
