Alice founded The Female Archetypes from her personal experience of navigating how her body changed through pregnancy and postpartum. Each piece is designed to adapt with the wearer, crafted in London sustainably with high-quality materials and thoughtful construction. Each piece adjusts between sizes 8-18 through panels, hidden zips and poppers so they adjust to you depending on your needs today.
Jeans
The concealed adjustment means the jeans can change from a UK 8-12 (size 1) and a UK 14-18 (size 2). This is done through pleats that open up so the size can be adjusted, concealed by a waistband so it is not visible what size setting they’re on.
Blazer
Our inaugural collection, the "Core Four," is the foundation of every woman’s wardrobe, featuring versatile, timeless pieces that adapt to the many stages of your life. Each garment is designed to be a beloved staple that will see you through life’s many transitions.
Shirt
The overshirt is designed to evolve to suit your needs through a panel system on the side seams. Depending on the size you feel you need on the day, you can select and insert one of three panels. The panels, front closure and cuffs are all closed with poppers so that the shirt is considerate to your level of finger dexterity.
Trench Coat
The Trench coat is designed for all seasons and all stages of life. Depending on the size you feel you need on the day, you can select and insert one of three panels on the side seams to suit your needs.
