Simone & Mary

"Launched in 2014 by our family of milliners in the trade since 1935, Simon and Mary honors the past but draws inspiration from the contemporary. Family is in the bones of our business. The Johannesburg factory is as it was it half a century ago New designs or classic shapes are made with the same trusted machines from the 60's by experienced machinists whose own children inherited their skills and are now working and growing in the business decades older late.
The first Simon and Mary collection was showcased on the heads of Johannesburg's creative class; the brand has always been inseparable from the city. Over the years, we've partnered with local creative collaborators like Jana+Koos and Trevor Stuurman to tell our story visually. Simon and Mary have cultivated a community of loyal enthusiasts who, like the brand, stand for individuality, style and the best quality."
