What it is

“A method that has not survived our own margin does not get recommended to anyone else.”

A principal, Kaelo Global

Wearon Studio is the group's owned consumer brand and its only one. It designs and sells fashion direct to customers, and it is run as a business in its own right rather than as a showcase. It also functions as the group's proving ground: the marketing activity tests its own methods on Wearon Studio's profit and loss before recommending them to anyone else, and the trade activity's understanding of cloth shows up in what the label chooses to make.

Inside the brand

What Wearon Studio is
01

Designed in-house

Design, range planning and development are held internally rather than licensed or bought in. The label carries a point of view because someone is accountable for having one.

02

Sold direct

Direct-to-consumer, which means the brand owns the customer relationship, the data and the returns problem. All three are harder than selling wholesale and all three are more instructive.

03

Cloth chosen by people who buy cloth

The group has traded fabric since 1989. That shows up in weight, hand and construction decisions that a label without that background tends to leave to a supplier.

04

The group's proving ground

Acquisition cost, repeat purchase rate, returns and cash-on-delivery behaviour are measured here first. A method that has not survived our own margin does not get recommended.

Common questions

How many consumer brands does Kaelo own?
One. Wearon Studio. Earlier material on this site described a larger portfolio; that was inaccurate and has been corrected.
Does Kaelo manufacture the garments?
No. The group trades fabric and operates the label; production sits with manufacturing partners. Kaelo owns no factories.
Where do I buy it?
Through the brand's own site. This page is the group's account of the activity, not the shop.
