About the Designer
Meriah Muller-Zyp was born and raised in the Okanagan Valley, at the foot of the Monashee Mountains, but spent much of her adult life abroad. She returned to Canada with her husband and children in 2014 and found her way back home to the Okanagan, where she first experimented with designing clothes as a child.
She works to dismantle the exclusive, disconnected nature of the current fashion system and build more joyful, just alternatives.
Sustainable practices: Slow design process and timeless design, made to order, natural fabric.
