In a world dominated by mass-produced fashion and conformity, there exists a haven where creativity knows no bounds! At Made You Look, we’re not just a business; we’re a movement, a safe space for jewellery designers who march to the beat of their own drum. We believe in embracing non-conformity, breathing creativity, and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the world of fashion and design. This, coupled with the fact that we are innate rebels and rulebreakers allows us to make some pretty special and innovative pieces you won’t come across anywhere else.
Made You Look was founded on the principles of innovation, creativity, and non-conformity. We understand that true artistry flourishes when designers are free to explore the farthest reaches of their imaginations. That’s why we’ve created a space where designers are encouraged to break the rules, defy expectations, and create pieces that are not only beautiful to wear, but are also deeply meaningful and an expression of their personal creativity.
What is “Art to Wear”?
Art to Wear, or wearable art, is a unique genre of fashion that blurs the lines between fashion and fine art. It’s about taking fashion to a whole new level, where garments and accessories become canvases, and the pieces become a medium for boundless creativity and expression. It’s a celebration of individuality and a rejection of the cookie-cutter approach that dominates the fashion industry.
Art to Wear pieces are typically one-of-a-kind and reflect the creativity and unique vision of the designer. These wearable artworks challenge conventional notions of jewellery, pushing boundaries and embracing unconventional materials and techniques.
One-of-a-Kind, Handmade Pieces
At Made You Look, our designers are artisans in the truest sense of the word. Their innovative pieces are meticulously handcrafted, making them a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. We pride ourselves on offering unique jewellery and accessories that you simply won’t find anywhere else.

Beyond the Boundaries of Fashion
These collections transcend the boundaries of traditional fashion. It’s not just about accessories, it’s about self-expression. When you wear one of these pieces, you’re not just wearing an accessory; you’re wearing a story, a piece of art that reflects your unique personality and style. These pieces invite you to step out of your comfort zone and into a world of creativity and self-discovery. They empower you to make a statement, to stand out from the crowd, and to embrace your individuality unapologetically.
Creating avant-garde pieces is a labor-intensive process that begins with the designer’s vision and ends with a stunning wearable masterpiece. Each piece starts as a blank canvas, waiting to be transformed. The designers carefully select materials, colors, and techniques that align with their creative vision in order to allow them to create something never before seen. The hands of our skilled artisans bring these visions to life. They meticulously select the finest materials, from sparkling gemstones to precious metals, and then carefully craft them into unique creations. Every detail, from the precision of intricate designs to the delicacy of hand-set stones, is a testament to the dedication and passion of our designers.
In a world where fast fashion has taken a toll on the environment, we’re committed to a more sustainable approach. These pieces feature sustainably sourced or recycled material that minimizes the detrimental impact on the environment while focusing on longevity. By creating unique, timeless pieces that are built to last, we encourage a shift away from disposable fashion and toward a more sustainable future. When you invest in a piece from these collections, you’re not just acquiring a beautiful accessory, you’re making a conscious choice to support a more sustainable and ethical fashion industry.
At Made You Look, we celebrate the human spirit’s endless capacity for innovation and self-expression. Our unique and one-of-a-kind collections are a testament to the unwavering commitment of our designers to push the boundaries of fashion and create unique, handmade pieces that celebrate innovation and creativity.
