Thoughtfully Designed
Lovingly Hand-Crafted

At House of Lacuna, we don’t believe in seasonal collections. In fact, we stay away from doing anything quickly; without conscience.

Our styles are slow from infancy: designed, hand-stitched and printed with intention and purpose at every step. The result is simple, timeless and classic fashion, worn for years and across every season.

Supporting Artisans in India and their communities, with integrity, honour and grace.

Every texile print Naomi Designs inhouse through motif design in illustrator and photoshop.

Our Story

Naomi Swalwell comes from a long line of entrepreneurs, with her great grandfather founding the nationally treasured brand, Cottees. 

It was her grandmother May, in fact, who came up with the Aussie staple of every family’s summer, ‘Passiona’, helping her father to lovingly squeeze the fruits for each batch of cordial and jam. 

Naomi’s fashion credentials are vast and impressive, with stints in design production at Zambesi in New Zealand and womens wear design at Bonds in Australia. It was these experiences that Naomi credits to her love for homegrown brands; ones that cultivate and celebrate the laid-back Aussie aesthetic, and snap-change seasons of the land down under.

Using renewable textiles and Employing Local Workers to create timeless, quality garments.
