The Basic Band

The Basic Band began as a solution to temporarily alter garments without the need to ruin them. Founded in 2020 by Danielle Smyrneos and Nicole Costa - two friends who were living together during Covid. The pair were excited by the thought of raiding each others wardrobes but most of the clothing items needed slight alterations to fit them both.

After many attempts at tucking, tying, pinning, and even accidentally destroying an item they quickly realised that sharing clothing wasn’t what they thought it would be - until the idea of The Basic Band came along. A single item that would allow garments to be temporarily altered to fit and be styled to suit each individual.
