We Did It: Created By Lau at The Good Clothes Show 2025, Manchester
The Show That Was Made for Us
In November 2025, Created By Lau headed to Manchester Central to exhibit at The Good Clothes Show — and honestly, it was one of those experiences that reminds you exactly why you started.
If you know me, you know my stance: I create unique, one-of-a-kind, high-end pieces. I'm not interested in mass-produced, throwaway trends. My customers want investment pieces that tell a story, support a small maker (that's me, your Yorkshire lass!), and last a lifetime. So when the opportunity came to exhibit at an event built entirely around that philosophy, it felt like a perfect fit.
What Is The Good Clothes Show?
The Good Clothes Show is the ultimate fashion event for conscious shoppers. It celebrates vintage, pre-loved, and independent artisanal brands — and champions the idea that you can have great style while making good choices.
- Artisanal and independent brands — from bespoke jewellery to sustainable clothing, every maker there shares a commitment to quality over quantity.
- Masterclasses and expert talks — on everything from upcycling to personal styling, empowering visitors to shop better and own their wardrobe.
- A genuine community — stylish women who are done with the fast-fashion hamster wheel and want to invest in pieces that truly reflect their personality.
Frequently asked: What kind of brands exhibit at The Good Clothes Show? The show focuses on independent, sustainable, and artisanal makers — think handmade jewellery, vintage clothing, upcycled fashion, and conscious lifestyle brands.
Why This Event Felt Like Our Tribe
The show's mission — championing independent designers and promoting conscious consumption — is exactly what Created By Lau is built on. Every bold, statement piece I make is handmade with heart; a complete rejection of the ‘take-make-waste’ mentality. I only ever make a small number of each design, meaning when you buy from me, you're investing in genuine exclusivity and craftsmanship.
Being in a room full of people who share that belief — makers and shoppers alike — was energising in a way that's hard to put into words.
What We Brought to the Show
I showcased a selection of handmade polymer clay and resin jewellery alongside our Welded Bonds permanent jewellery — pieces that spark conversations, turn heads, and are made to be worn for life. It was wonderful to meet customers face to face, talk about the making process, and see people fall in love with pieces in real time.
