The story
NAMI began not as a business plan but a single, domestic desire: a cashmere dress with a hood built in, the kind of piece worn without thinking and kept for a lifetime. Philippine Namy made it in March 2024. One dress became a collection, then three more — the most recent shown on the official Paris fashion calendar.
Trained at Istituto Marangoni in London and the IFM in Paris, Philippine sharpened her eye at Petronio Associates, the image studio behind decades of luxury campaigns, before working alongside Isabel Marant and the Fédération Française de la Mode. That grounding in image and gesture now shapes NAMI from within: a label built on the memory of a Scottish family home, where each collection reimagines a different chapter of that landscape — the tartan and tweed of the Highlands, the pinstriped ease of a golf course, the solitary uniform of a lighthouse keeper.
Craftsmanship
Every NAMI piece is made to be touched before it is seen. Cashmere, Italian wool, silk crêpe, flannel — the fabric leads. Garments are produced in small ateliers across Europe and Nepal, many of them women-led. Our raincoats are woven and cut in Scotland, in a mill brought back to life by a woman who revived the country's Mackintosh know-how. In Paris, shirts and trousers are cut from dormant fabric stock, often drawn from the reserves of established luxury houses — nothing wasted, everything built to last.
Philosophy
NAMI is not built for noise. No branding shouted across a chest, no logic of trend. It is slow fashion in the truest sense: pieces conceived to be worn for years, not seasons, carrying the same quiet sincerity as the home that first inspired them.
