Our Story

We’re Carly and Brendan, the souls behind Only Lovers Left.

In 2015, we started OLL as an outlet for creativity and a way to connect with like-minded, free-spirited souls. Inspired by the vibrant textures and colors of Earth—and a touch of nostalgia for the flower power era—OLL emerged as a celebration of freedom, self-expression, and joy.

It all began with experimenting on garments for ourselves, falling in love with the art of hand-dyeing and tie-dye. This creative process quickly became a core part of our story and something we hold close to our hearts. Through life’s twists and turns, OLL has remained a constant source of inspiration, evolving and growing alongside our family.

We love designing comfortable, wearable pieces bursting with colour to enhance that sense of freedom you find when exploring nature. For us, OLL is more than a brand—it’s a manifestation of belief in yourself, a celebration of joy, optimism, gratitude, and the endless fun of summer days. Tie-dye and good vibes.

As we continue to grow, we’re committed to honouring handcrafted traditions, working closely with our team to offer ethically created, high-quality artisanal clothing, and staying connected to you—our incredible community.

As a family, we believe life is for chasing your wildest (or most humble) dreams. Thank you for being part of ours.
