About Us

Bay & Fay was started by fashion designer, Isabel Bay Protopapa in 2020, after having her first son. She had worked as a Womenswear Designer across the UK high street for many years and felt her style and love for embroidery would suit clothes for little ones.

“We aim to produce beautiful, hand-crafted garments which become heirlooms to treasure and pass down.”

Working with contacts from Fairtrade producer groups in Nepal and Bangladesh, she started to build a collection inspired by vintage details and sustainable fabrics.

Every piece we design has a story to tell, from the historic inspiration, to the cotton farmer, the dyer, the weaver, the embroiderer, the machinest all the way along to the little boy or girl who ends up wearing it. A lot of skill, time and love has gone into every item and we hope you treasure it.
