Nancybird

is a designer clothing brand established in 2002 in Melbourne, Australia by founder Emily Wright, who began making handmade bags and purses as a side project to her fine arts printmaking degree, screenprinting onto fabrics and sewing small purses at home. Inspired by Melbourne's growing independent design movement, the brand spent its first decade as a leather goods label before slowly expanding into printed silk apparel, footwear, and homewares. Today Emily remains the sole owner of the brand, designing all in-house textiles and leathergoods herself while building artist collaborations with emerging and established Australasian talent. Nancybird is represented in around 100 stockists across Australia and New Zealand and ships internationally, operating with a deep commitment to natural, biodegradable materials, small production runs, and careful supply chain transparency including regular visits to its making partners.
