Inspirations: Heritage

Throughout my blog I will be looking at the term heritage, which can be described as "practices that are handed down from the past by tradition". I will be looking at this terminology within fashion and how it has taken off in a big way come 2010, and i hope it may continue because all the countries in the world have a lot to offer us and will try and discovery everything i can..


To begun I will take a look at the shop Albam, and how they are doing what they do and doing it well! 


A little biography:


We are now coming into our third year of Albam, and it has been quite a journey. For those who have recently found us, we started in a small office in Nottingham just myself and Alastair and 7 styles in our first catalogue.

Our journey has been a lot of fun with its fair share of sweat and backbone to get it to where we are today. Now we are an independent clothing company with a small but perfectly formed team who all share the same vision of producing products in the eye of our starting ideal: Modern Crafted Clothing.
 We continue to manufacture our products in Great Britain and if this isn’t possible then we look as close to home as possible, so we now have good friends in Portugal, USA, Italy. Our aim is to bring as much product back to Britain and we have spent the last year building a business with your help and support that is enabling our British factories to grow and develop with us.
