Discovered by Darcy

Discovered by Darcy Sustainable apparel, inspired by our four-legged family members! It wasn't until she was home that I thought, 'I can do that!'. Please help a dog-dad out!

Having waited several years for the timing to be right, in May 2020 I finally paid my deposit on a Miniature Dachshund puppy, at just a day old. Darcy came home eight long weeks later, and we've loved every minute since (she hasn't eaten anything valuable or deadly yet). I spent my puppy-prep time searching for small businesses I could support, and quickly acquired an affordable, high quality ward

robe for our new arrival. Since then, I have purchased a sewing machine and learnt to use it, experimented with a variety of patterns, techniques and fabrics, and was proud to launch Discovered by Darcy with a strong introductory range. Since our October 4th launch we have grown significantly, and continue to release unique and fun designs for you and your pup to enjoy! Late in October, we welcomed home our second puppy, Ember. She is a keen, cheeky assistant, carefully managing our quality control department and finally joining Darcy in the spotlight, taking part in her first campaign with the release of our Valentines 2021 collection. We are very excited to be integrating more of our baby girl into the DBD feed! Our products are handmade to order with you and your pup in mind; we consider appearance, longevity and safety in our manufacturing, and meticulous attention to detail throughout. We hope you'll stick around for our journey - we have so much planned! We frequently add new products to our permanent collection, as well as a host of holiday collections with unique fabrics to mark the occasion. After all, our pups are family, and it's only right they be part of the celebration! In short, we'd love if you'd consider us for your bandana needs. This business has been a labour of love, and the girls really like lamb treats (the expensive kind!).

Ready for a peek at our Working group stats from Crufts? 🦮

A strong and diverse category, our Canine Companions series has 19 Working breeds represented, with 9 of those designs finding their homes with you - a 47% discovery rate for this incredible group 🧡

Their biggest moment came on Saturday’s Toy & Utility day - ironically I suspect these pet-parents were working for the Working & Pastoral Friday 🤭

The Dobermann was our biggest seller for this beloved group, finding new homes across three days of the show. A quieter but incredibly special statistic for Sunday - the St. Bernard proudly stood as the only Working breed sold that day, with their one and only purchase of the entire show 🥹

Of course, there are still plenty of beautiful Working breeds waiting to be discovered - the Bernese Mountain Dog, Bouvier des Flandres, Boxer, Dogue de Bordeaux, Hovawart, Mastiff, Neapolitan Mastiff, Portuguese Water Dog, Rottweiler and Tibetan Mastiff didn’t make it onto any apparel this time - but we’d love to change that ✨

If you know one of these beautiful breeds, tag them below - let’s help these incredible Working dogs' humans upgrade their wardrobes! 💪🏼

There's something really special about creating a portrait that truly captures your pet 🥹

🥲 The tufts of fur that are never quite under control.
👅 The tongue that's *always* out.
🥰 The exact expression that's waiting for you every time you come home to them.

No templates, no 'close enough'. Simply your pet, exactly as you know them 🧡

Respectfully... some of your pets have stronger personal brands than most influencers 😅

One of the best parts of designing personalised clothing inspired by your pets is nailing that tagline that feels quintessentially *you* 🫡

✨️ Nicknames
✨️ Instagram handles
✨️ KC names/show names
✨️ Meaningful quotes
✨️ Team branding

Each piece custom. Each piece perfect 💪🏼
