Contrado - UK Collaboration Relaunch
Cecca Designs - Contrado shop Relaunch!
I originally created my shop with Contrado back in December 2022 but after some changes in their structure my shop was closed in 2023. Fast forward to April 2026 and the founder of Contrado, Chris Childs reached out to persuade me to relaunch my shop with them. After my initial hesitation I’m delighted to be collaborating with them again. Contrado are a UK based, sustainable company who print and manufacture a huge range of beautiful products (over 450!!). Their factory is based in London and every product is hand made to order within a matter of days. I’m originally from London so it’s great for me to find a production partner from my home town. Since my original launch Chris assures me that they are in a better place to support stores now, so I’m hopeful things will work out better this time around!
My ‘Cecca Designs’ shop with them is now open and I’m excited to have been able to add some gorgeous products including a variety of luxury bags, wrap dresses, bikinis, sunglasses, sandals, wallpaper and fabrics!
I’ve created 5 capsule collections so far, based on themes but I hope to expand them in future. If there is any particular design of mine that you’d like to see on one of their products please let me know! If you’d like to order a unique dress, swimsuit or bag which will then be printed and manufactured just for you, this is the shop for you!

I’d love it if you’d take a look and let me know your thoughts!
Prehistoric Sea Clothing
Exciting new collaboration with Three by the Sea Clothing
I’m delighted to share some pictures of the beautiful outfits made by Three by the Sea Clothing with my ‘Swimming with Plesiosaurs’ pattern. This boutique children’s clothes company creates stunning mini collections of children’s clothing, with an exquisite eye for detail and quality. So I was thrilled when they approached me with a request to licence my prehistoric themed design. The beautiful trio of outfits in their ‘Bamboo Prehistoric Sea Collection’ are all made from high quality, lightweight bamboo fabric - so they’re soft and very wearable - just lovely!

I love Yiume’s style - they’re inspired by nature, art, the joy of living and the call of the ocean! Which could happily describe me too! I’m thrilled that they selected one of my most joyful designs - Peace, Love and Dinosaurs as it’s also one of my favourites. And I love how the finishe d shirt has turned out!
