BEAUTY is love in

Tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, garlic, onions, bread, and a knitted cloth on a table.

This is Melia McDermott. A Canadian slow fashion brand with no goals, no plans, just a desire to make beautiful things and to share them with you.

Everything we make is thoughtfully crafted and as local and handmade as possible. Right now, our tiny team makes everything in Calgary by hand, so anything you find here is a true original, probably made by Melia herself.

That said, things change pretty quickly around here, on Melia’s whim actually, so join our mailing list if you’d like to keep up.

For now, we’re obsessed with our beaded accessories, and come July preorders will open for our autumn/winter 2026 knitwear collection.

We hope you stick around for the party.
