Philosophy

Body Re-imaging

Most of us have some areas we want to downplay, and other areas we want to showcase. The key concept behind TML is that smart clothing should be able to do both at the same time (...or whatever you want it to do) so you always look great, and never look like you're 'hiding'.

The fabrics are luxurious, size friendly and body positive, allowing for the various cyclical fluctuations that occur in a woman's body throughout her lifetime, including pregnancy, weight loss, and weight gain.

Sustainability: Extended Wear Zero Waste Design

A large part of TML's agenda was to use the same universal design strategies that are being used in architectural design and construction - to serve the needs of many while reducing negative environmental impact.

The garments are trans-seasonal, which allows them to season-hop quite efficiently.

All TML patterns are zero waste, so nothing but the selvage goes into the trash.

Utilitarian Chic Philosophy
In today's multi-tasking world, our products and environments have to become SMARTER to keep up with the constant changes we experience in daily life.

1) TREAD LIGHTLY: Go for staying power.

2) EXPLORE FREELY: Find what works for you.

3) TRANSITION EASILY: Seek out solutions that facilitate change and allow for spontaneity.

4) PACK EFFICIENTLY: Do more with less.

5) HAVE MORE FUN!: Save the world without having to give up good taste or good times.

Below are examples of convertible clothing, furniture and interior solutions Trudy and her team have been developing for the past eight years. These streamlined solutions are about having it all, in the tiniest package possible.

Being SMARTER* means you always have lots of options at your fingertips.

Planning SMARTER* means you're well prepared to accommodate short term and long term change.
