Olive Basics, Elevated.
Classic silhouettes, functional design, effortless style.
This collection marks a new chapter in the Olive Basics journey: not a pivot, but a deepening of our core sensibilities. Created by our founder, Gillian, in response to the needs of women in changing seasons, from mothers who begin to emerge from the intensity of early parenthood and rediscover new parts of themselves to women who simply need more dressed up clothes for work without sacrificing comfort.
These pieces stay true to our signature design ethos: prioritising fabric and function, while featuring sharper silhouettes, weightier fabrics, and thoughtful details that bring quiet confidence.
To celebrate this shift, we brought the collection to one of the fashion capitals of the world, Paris, so you can enjoy our creations in a new light.
“After weaning my child, I was working more than ever. I had a strong desire to play with style beyond my comfort zone – as if to say, I'm ready for a new season. I'm ready for a new part of me.”
– Gillian shen, Founder
