Our Story

At Fenella Smith, my passion for joyful, bold pattern design and thoughtful colour curation has been at the heart of everything we do since the very beginning. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with incredible names in retail and conservation, including WWF, Fortnum & Mason, John Lewis Partnership, Heals, Hershesons, Guide Dogs, The National Trust, Virgin Atlantic, The Dorchester Group, Ishga meeting many great people all with a common cause..
These partnerships have been an opportunity to blend our signature aesthetic with the values of sustainability, luxury, and craftsmanship. Each collection tells a story, celebrating natural beauty and heritage in a way that feels vibrant and meaningful. For me, it’s always about creating designs that bring joy and a smile, while honouring the importance of responsible practices, timeless creativity and a little bit of a luxury.Fenella x
