Jellicoe

Jellicoe Design is the passionate creation of Deeanne Hobbs. She designs the fabrics and the styles in Nelson, New Zealand, and has them ethically made in China. Her Deeanne Hobbs label however, (green dress in the middle) is made in New Zealand. The first Jellicoe collection was produced in 2008. “It was essentially art wear”, explains Deeanne.“NZ women love to wear clothes that are a little different and my wearable style of art ranges really got them excited. Our pieces are not mass produced. I am driven by the desire to create ready-to-wear clothing that is artistic, comfortable and very easy to wear. It is particularly designed for NZ women – for our climate, our size and our shape”.
