Olivia Von Halle





I was given the most beautiful pair of pyjamas yesterday by complete surprise, and I am in love…its hard to get out of them, especially when it is so unbearably cold outside. I think I may hibernate at home now until my return to New York next week…good plan…

After studying Fashion and Textile Management at Leeds University, Olivia von Halle worked for The Future Laboratory in London as a trend forecaster for clients including Louis Vuitton, Gucci Group and Lamborghini. In 2008 she moved to Shanghai, China where she continued working as a trend forecaster for various agencies and as a luxury brand consultant.
Coming home from evenings partying with friends, she would long to ditch her sky-high heels and constricting outfits for something glamorous enough to enjoy a gin and tonic in before sliding off to bed. Inspired by the lounging pyjamas worn by Coco Chanel and her contemporaries in the 1920s, she started work with her tailor to design the perfect pair of pyjamas. In 2011 she returned to London to launch the Olivia von Halle brand.
Olivia now lives in London with her husband Hugo and boxer dog Bathtub.
