London & Spain
Five of Us
Designed in London and handcrafted in Spain, Five of Us is a stylish and sustainable collection of nursery items, knitwear and customisable childrenswear for babies and children aged up to 10. This family business, founded by Queralt Ferrer and her husband, has made it its mission to revive the traditional handcraftsmanship of ateliers that have specialised in their skill for generations. These traditional methods are combined with an up-to-date style, an emphasis on sustainability and a modern artisan touch.
Under the Creative Direction of Queralt Ferrer, who has spearheaded design at international fashion brands including Massimo Dutti, Marks & Spencer and now John Lewis, the brand was born in late 2021 from her childhood memories of playfulness, freedom, and adventure. These memories are combined with decades of experience in the fashion industry and a passion for genuine style and craftsmanship of the highest quality, to bring a unique proposition to the nursery and children’s sector.
A commitment to sustainability is at the core of Five of Us, with all pieces handcrafted from organic cotton, natural fabrics and recycled yarns certified by leading bodies such as GOTS, ECOVERO or RWS. Likewise, all packaging is recyclable or recycled and a low-volume approach looks to challenge the issue of over-production and wastage in the fashion industry. Five of Us works with small, family run businesses and artisans who have honed their craft over generations to create pieces of the highest quality that are made to last.
