Slowette founder, Hannah Rochell first came across Ivy in July 2023 having seen Zoe De Pass (AKA Dress Like a Mum) wearing her Ivy tee. We soon got chatting on Instagram and Hannah tried out a couple of our tees, both of which she still wears on a weekly basis.
As a slow fashion advocate, Hannah was instantly drawn to our brand ethos, sustainability credentials, our stripes, and the fact that you can shop by sleeve length on our website!
Fast forward a few months and we met in London when we both happened to be visiting. It was then that we had the idea to collaborate on a tee. The choice of shape was obvious for Hannah - it had to be Erin. Our best selling shape that she has come to love for its boxy and relaxed cut and loose ¾ sleeve.

And the stripe?
Hannah’s idea was to incorporate her Slowette brand colours (green to match her wardrobes, yellow and pink) into a bold block stripe. So, here it is. In our buttery soft signature organic cotton jersey, that’ll wash amazingly for you and feel just as great when you wear it a year from now.
Hannah says “I love the shape and fit of Erin so much. The loose fit and ¾ sleeves make it an absolute dream for styling with loads of different outfits in my wardrobe, year-round. The slightly retro colour palette of these stripes, taken from the Slowette logo, remind me of childhood tees I wore in the 80s, while feeling totally current at the same time. I’m so thrilled to collaborate with Sally and one of my favourite, most-worn brands.”
