our founder
Emilee, an island girl born and raised in Barbados decided to take her love for casual-wear and create her dream brand, TRU.
her core values as a founder was to build a community rather than be rounding up profits in a spreadsheet - curating timeless collections that are ethically made and actually last all inspired by her home, Barbados and the sweet island life it provides.
"TRU was created from my love/slight obsession with casual-wear - I have super sensitive skin so during the creative process that was highlighted, I was persistent to find fabrics that were ethically sourced and did not irritate my skin.
I am TRU, TRU is me - I breathe my brand everyday - I believe that we all bring something unique to this world, I don't believe in competition, I TRUly believe that there is enough for everyone.
My mantra in life is to stay creative, stay inspired and stay on the grind, what's meant to be will always be.
I hope you love the brand as much as I do!
love always,
em. x "
