We specialize in supporting fashion and lifestyle brands through sourcing, custom manufacturing, buying, design, brand development, technical packs, quality control, following, image production, logistics, sales & marketing of fashion products. Deepwear is a fashion agency that has an international reach to support businesses like your own.
Deepwear was founded by Thoray in 2007, after being part of several successful ventures in the contemporary apparel market and developing a taste for sourcing and manufacturing outside of the industry’s conventional ways. He has been active in all of Europe, Asia and around the entire world, which he sees as one global country.
Thoray was born in Mozambique, Africa, to a gracious Belgium mother and a Mozambican father, a freedom fighter guerrilla commander, who played a crucial role in the independence and building of the country. His adventures start from birth, having been raised between Africa and various countries of Western /Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Thoray, working from the age of 13 years old and being self-educated, led him to become a pure autodidact. He has travelled the world, lived in 11 different countries and today he speaks 8 languages fluently, in addition to being a lecturer at RMIT University, teaching his progressive technique of sourcing and production to new generations.
From the very beginnings in Thailand, Deepwear was and still is, about human relationships and social development, with style. Thoray continues the revolution in honour of his father, but in his own progressive way. Sustainable production is a means to bring people together. Connecting, protecting brands, and supporting artisans, as well as established factories from different parts of the globe whilst building bridges between cultures in Asia, Africa, South America and Europe. Our core goal is to connect communities, workshops and industrial factories in challenging locations to global fashion & lifestyle brands in the international market.
Since 2015, the company has opened more than 10+ production and support offices around the world in strategic countries to the industry with an expert team to suit, promising to create a legendary company and organisation. Today, after almost fifteen years, Deepwear continues to act as a bridge and bodyguard for brands globally, with networks and techniques that are always original, unexpected, eclectic, rebellious, sophisticated and efficient. Deepwear balances perfectly between the edge of commercial reality, security and contemporary culture. Linking brands to our international network of professional makers, suppliers, and or creatives in remote locations, giving access to the international marketplace more than ever before. These opened routes to the market creates employment and an opportunity to improve their livelihood and craftsmanship by supporting the brands’ vision to reach their goals.
