Some brands are born from a grand masterplan; others begin with a single, very specific wardrobe frustration. For Australian designer Anna McLaren, it was the search for a simple all-black lace-up sandal at an accessible price point that sparked the launch of A.EMERY in 2017. What started as a tightly edited, self-funded footwear-only offering has since evolved organically—and now, it's an insider-favourite label spanning ready-to-wear and accessories, with global stockists such as Net-A-Porter, Harrods and Mytheresa.
Built slowly and with intention, the brand reflects McLaren’s instinct for designing pieces that slot seamlessly into the rhythms of everyday life. Think: elevated knits, softly tailored separates, minimalist accessories and beautifully crafted leather shoes that prioritise timeless elegance and polish without ever sacrificing comfort.
