Geelong based fashion brand Jade and May is the go-to choice for anyone looking for well-made, comfortable casual wear in natural fabrics. Although begun originally as a sleepwear brand, Jade and May has now transitioned into stylish leisurewear. 

“Jade and May offers comfortable, easy pieces that are ethically produced.  Pieces to wear for relaxed days or a good night’s sleep,” explains the brand’s founder and designer Carlie O’Loughlin. 

According to Carlie, she is inspired by “anyone who wears what they love.  I love anyone who follows their own style rather than a trend”. All of the label’s garments are designed by Carlie and produced in a female family owned and operated factory in Bali. 

Jade and May are also supporters of the Offspring Project, which has created a safe space for women and children who have been victims of human trafficking in Kolkata, India. The project helps the women to learn new skills for future employment and also offers training in life and money skills alongside health check ups. The women create special products that are then sold through Jade and May.
