Scrunchies have taken the media by the storm as the trend has finally revived after being a go-to accessory back in the 80s. From silk to velvet, and plain to floral prints, Stitch Sisters has it all!
Who are the Stitch Sisters?
Maria and Martina are the two sisters behind the brand. Growing up in a family where everyone sews their own clothes and knits their owns scarves and jumper. It was almost second-nature to them to follow in their footsteps.
The more we grow up, the more distant we sometimes tend to get from our family. Starting this brand helped both sisters to reconnect. “Stitch sisters not only gave us the opportunity to spend more time together but also gave us the opportunity to keep our family heritage alive,” Martina and Maria said.
Where it all started…
Stitch Sisters was launched at the beginning of September. Their first products being velvet scrunchies that go by the name Scarlett, Celia, and Esme. Naming their scrunchies is an iconic feature in Stitch Sisters’ products, and weirdly enough, the names fit the scrunchies perfectly.
What are they up to currently?
Stitch Sisters are continuously producing different designs for their scrunchies. Their recent collection is “THE VELVET SISTERS” featuring four different kinds of scrunchies; Ursula, Bianca, Isla, and Amber – all beautiful autumn colours.
During the month of October, they launched a campaign for Breast Cancer Awareness where 50% of all products will be donated to the Malta Community Chest Fund. Not only will you be buying a cute accessory and helping a local business, but you will also be doing a good deed to those in need (that rhymed).
What are they planning for the future?
The brand revolves around the empowerment of women and serves to brace sisterhood.
Martina and Maria look forward to working with different people and companies, getting to know people’s stories, and eventually, seeing their small local business grow into something bigger.
Thus far, the two sisters are focusing on making scrunches – a cute hair tie but an even cuter accessory! That being said, they are already looking into expanding their product line to bigger and better things, catering to all kinds of aesthetics while still remaining authentic.
They both strive for perfection in their work and their love for their work shines with every scrunchie they make, from the fabric to choosing a name for them.
