NearFar Bio: NearFar is a unique ethical brand set to take the thinking girl's wardrobe to another level.
Set up by Goldsmiths graduate Stephanie Hogg, NearFar combines beautiful design with traditional Sierra Leonean prints to create a stunning collection of wearable yet highly original pieces.
Ethics NearFar works with organisations that train young Sierra Leonoeans in the art of tailoring. After 10 years of civil war the country was left with many uneducated and unemployed young people. Many of the tailors have lived as street children, been victims of commercial sex trade or been subjected to domestic abuse. NearFar not only educates those that missed out on a education but also helps create sustainable employment.
