ABOUT

This is Studio Koter. We are a London-based brand emerging from a shared vision of a modern and modular wardrobe for children that is produced in a considered and responsible way. 

With over a decade of experience in the fashion industry behind them, Studio Koter was founded by Anna Smit and Bliss Staple-Knaggs in 2023. Both shared a clear vision rooted in their experience both in the industry and as mothers.

The pair both departed roles at COS to start Studio Koter; Anna as a senior designer in womenswear and Bliss as head of buying for menswear. Anna’s vision for a practical yet innovative and distinctive aesthetic for children and Bliss’ pursuit of functional, long lasting garments with no compromise on style brought them together to create Studio Koter.

Our design handwriting is contemporary and always with an innovative edge; tactile fabrication and unexpected colour combinations embody the spirit of the brand. The collection is built around carefully developed core shapes that are both functional and dynamic, transcending gender stereotypes.

We release limited collections produced in carefully selected artisanal factories ensuring transparency, minimal waste, and the very best quality.

Our garments are designed to last and are generous in fit, allowing lots of room to grow into. We are currently offering for age 1 all the way up to adult sizes, subscribe to our newsletter to be the first to know as we grow.

Koter translates to ‘little kid’ in Dutch. This is where we started: influenced by the experiences as new parents, bringing our fresh perspective to this part of the industry.
