Dora Studio

Is an independent fashion brand based in Edinburgh, built on the values of sustainability, inclusivity, and craftsmanship. 

We believe in 

  • creating versatile clothing
  • that’s made to last
  • designed for self-expression
  • made with care
  • Crafted to be worn by any body

Sustainability at Our Core

We are committed to ethical fashion practices by minimising waste, using recycled and deadstock fabrics, embracing slow fashion, and prioritising quality craftsmanship over fleeting trends. Every piece is designed with longevity in mind, promoting minimal waste fashion over mass production. We believe in mindful consumption, creating a functional wardrobe with staple pieces that serve multiple purposes. 

We know that no brand is perfect, but we believe it’s better to take meaningful steps forward than to contribute to the cycle of waste. Dora Studio is not just another fashion label, we are here to make a difference, even if it means taking things one stitch at a time.

Fashion for Every Body

Dora Studio is designed for all bodies, all sizes, and all genders. Our alphabet-based sizing system removes the stigma of traditional sizing, encouraging people to focus on fit and personal style rather than arbitrary numbers. We design fashion without gender labels, if you love it, wear it. Fashion should be a form of self-expression, not a set of rules.

As a small business, we are always learning, growing, and open to collaboration. Transparency is key to our journey. We strive for continuous improvement, making informed choices about ethical fashion, and sharing our knowledge with our community. Join us on our journey—one that values people, the planet, and the power of conscious fashion choices.
