where it all began...



ebonie n ivory...

in search of a name that would truly define the lifestyle, soul and essence of the brand, sara set out on a road trip to gain inspiration from her adventures and travels. the name 'ebonie n ivory' was created as a reflection of the special bond she shares with her sister penny

and this is where it all began...

the creative minds behind ebonie n ivory...



sara hawken...

creative director, designer, free spirit, and most importantly the one that brought ebonie n ivory to life back in 2014. she is the one that loves to add a bit of quirk to her everyday wear, with a love for designing clothes that are rare and uniquely specific

something interesting that you might not know about sara...

sara has a a diploma in interior design, with a love for recycling furniture and turning them into new pieces (she even tried out for channel nine's renovation show The Block)


mel serrano...


designer, free spirit and a true creative mind. she is the one with the daring artistic flair, joining the ebonie n ivory tribe after sara felt something was missing and was searching for someone to help shape her creative vision

something interesting that you might not know about mel...

mel is fluent in two languages, english and also spanish! in fact spanish is actually mel's first language, with lots of her family still living over in spain



who do they both look up too...


style icons and artists such as drew barrymore, cher, chloe sevigny, FKA twigs and julia stiles' character katt stratford from the film '10 things I hate about you'. it is clear that the inspiration that they gain from this unique mix of souls and style is reflected throughout their ideas, designs and collections

the first photoshoot...

it seems like forever ago that ebonie n ivory was established as a label and had their first photoshoot with model madi edwards for their first collection, SS16
it was a perfect team and a perfect afternoon for the photoshoot, with the sun setting slowly and magically as matt took continuous dreamy photos of madi in the grassy fields


this is only the beginning...

after setting off to new york to take part in the axis trade show and landing their first major international client asos, it is clear that ebonie n ivory will only grow and further florish as a label
the love and support from each and every one of you beautiful souls reading this is what drives the girls to continue to design the clothes that they do
to show how much your love and support is truly cherished we would like you to enjoy...
