Design style: Modern sensual, silhouetted architectural form, pleated construction, juxtaposed colour palette with texture and print enhancement
Lisa is inspired by fashion's intimacy with the body: design is about using tailoring to create three dimensional lines and structure form with fabric. Her design vision is to question how clothing links the world and the wearer, and how this can intensify the wearer`s aesthetic experience

Lulu may have just found a new side to her personality… and it’s these jeans.

Our distressed jacquard denim is that rare piece that works with almost everything — layered in winter, simple in summer, dressed up, dressed down, and somehow always looks effortlessly cool.

A little edge, a lot of comfort, and dangerously easy to wear.

Watch Lulu style them in today’s fitting session. 🤍

A special moment to encounter this image again, more than a decade after it was created.

Photographed by Ross Garrett in July 2013, this work has recently been exhibited at the Roger Ballen Centre for Photography (Inside Out Centre for the Arts | Photography and Art Museum), offering a chance to revisit an important chapter in Guillotine’s evolving visual language.

Looking back, I’m reminded of the power of collaboration and the remarkable creative minds who helped bring this image to life.

What happens to fashion once it becomes image?
Join us for Fashion: The Image — In Conversation as we explore fashion photography as archive, performance, memory, and cultural storytelling.

A conversation on authorship, identity, representation, and the power of the image to preserve, transform, and reimagine personal and collective histories.

Looking forward to sharing this dialogue alongside an inspiring panel of voices.

Guillotine explores Distressed Jacquard Denim in our latest release of the pants series.

A flattering, street-edge silhouette tailored to perfection — balancing classic investment with considered design. A sculpted wide waistband meets a straight-cut leg with pleats, and exaggerated patch pockets create effortless proportion.

Crafted in distressed woven jacquard, with exposed threads designed to evolve and change beautifully with time.

These are cropped above the ankle and available in limited editions in store and online.

Between Ruin and Renewal

In a time of fracture —
personal, collective —
what falls away
reveals what remains.

We choose to remake,
to restore,
to endure.
