The Magic of the Familiar
There’s something deeply comforting about nostalgia. A scent, a song, or a pattern can send us straight back to a moment we’d half-forgotten - Sunday mornings in the kitchen, the sound of a kettle whistling, or the soft cotton of pyjamas that have seen a thousand wash cycles but are still the comfiest thing you own.
At Their Nibs, we’ve always believed in the quiet power of nostalgia - not as a trend, but as a way of living. Our prints are hand-drawn with a nod to the past: whimsical florals, storybook stripes and heritage motifs that could have stepped straight out of your nan’s linen cupboard, yet feel perfectly at home in a modern bedroom.
Our founder Fiona says 'We believe in everyday luxury - prints that make you smile, fabrics that feel like home, and a touch of whimsy that makes the ordinary feel special.'
Vintage Inspiration Meets Modern Comfort
You might say we’re old-fashioned - and we’d take that as a compliment. But while our designs borrow from the past, our fabrics and fits are all about the now. Think breathable cottons, satins that glide across the skin, and silhouettes made for real comfort (yes, even on laundry day).
It’s a blend we like to call modern nostalgia: a celebration of timeless style that doesn’t compromise on comfort. Because while vintage charm is lovely, scratchy seams and stiff fabrics are not.
Slow Living, the Nibs Way
Fast fashion? Not for us. We prefer a slower pace - pyjamas that last, prints that stay beautiful year after year, and styles designed to be loved, not replaced. In a world that’s always rushing forward, there’s a quiet joy in pressing pause.
Pulling on your favourite pyjamas at the end of the day isn’t just about getting cosy - it’s a small act of resistance. A way of saying, “I’m done with the noise for today.” It’s about creating a home (and a wardrobe) that feels personal, not disposable.
Why Nostalgia Still Matters
Perhaps nostalgia never goes out of style because it connects us to who we are - and where we came from. It reminds us that comfort can be beautiful, that slow mornings are sacred, and that something doesn’t have to be new to be special.
At Their Nibs, we’ll always design with that in mind. Every pattern, every stitch, every robe and pyjama set is made to bring a little warmth, whimsy and familiarity to your everyday life. Every print starts by hand, inspired by treasures from the past, the wallpaper in a childhood bedroom, a teacup pattern, a forgotten fabric sample all reimagined for today.
