Introduce our readers to your business. When did you start it and why?
Lisou started in 2018 as a womenswear brand specialising in silk pieces with unique prints. As we’ve grown, we have added other fabrics, but we continue to design all our prints in-house, making every creation a unique piece. I have always been passionate about fashion, and there weren’t many brands doing what I wanted to do. So I took the plunge, and here we are.
How have social-distancing and stay-at-home orders affected your business? How have your priorities shifted?
Sadly, we had to close our shop because of the pandemic, but because we already had an online presence, we hoped we could rely on the loyalty of our customers as well as spreading the word further afield. Like everyone, our priorities shifted, but at Lisou, we’ve always loved a challenge, and everyone at Team Lisou has been incredible in coming up with great ideas to get us through the pandemic.
