ALL ABOUT TOM-O
HEY,
I'M SARAH
THANKS FOR VISITING TOM-O
I SET UP TOM-O MARCH 2021 IN THE NORTH EAST. MY LOVE FOR NATURE, THE PLANET AND THE MOTIVATION TO CELEBRATE THE SENTIMENT OF CLOTHING IS WHAT INSPIRED TOM-O. CREATING CLOTHES THAT DON'T COST THE EARTH, RECYCLING TEXTILES & PREVENTING THEM FROM LANDFILL.
​
SINCE LAUNCHING WE'VE HAD SO MANY GREAT OPPORTUNITIES & EXPERIENCES. FROM LONDON FASHION WEEK PRE-COVID, TO POP UPS IN SELFRIDGES & WESTFIELDS, FEATURED IN ELLE MAG, HAVING MY OWN STORE IN LEEDS CORN EX, LARGE SCALE WORKSHOPS SUCH AS HAPPY PLACE, WINNING AWARDS FROM SHEFFIELD HALLAM, TEES VALLEY & SMART WORKS. COLLABORATING WITH LOCAL CREATIVES & MNDA & OF COURSE WORKING WITH INCREDIBLE CUSTOMERS TO CREATE THE PERFECT TOM-O'S ALL THE TIME GIVING CLOTHING A NEW LIFE & PREVENTING THEM FROM LANDFILL.
AT THE START OF 2024 WE MOVED OUT OF OUR SHOP/STUDIO IN LEEDS CORN EXCHANGE AFTER 2 AMAZING YEARS. THIS YEAR I HOPE TO CONTINUE CREATING TOM-O'S, PUSH WORKSHOPS & WORK ON SOME EXCITING PROJECTS FOCUSED ON RECYCLING TEXTILES AND WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY & BRANDS AROUND ME.
IN 2023 I SET UP, THE TOM-ORROW POP UP - AN EVENT BRINGING SMALL BUSINESSES WITH SUSTAINABILITY AT IT'S HEART TOGETHER. PROMOTING SHOPPING SMALL & SUSTAINABLY! THIS YEAR WE HAVE MORE DATES HAPPENING AGAIN IN LEEDS CORN EX & ALSO I WILL BE TAKING THE TOM-ORROW POP UP TO SALTBURN TOO THIS YEAR!
