Our Story

PROUDLY SOUTH AFRICAN. PASSIONATELY BESPOKE.

For over 30 years, Desray has been creating timeless fashion with heart, right here in Cape Town.

What began as a love for beautiful fabrics and flattering design has grown into a proudly local, family-run brand committed to slow fashion, premium quality, and purposeful production.

MEET THE MANAGEMENT TEAM

SLOW FASHION WITH SOUL


At Desray, we believe fashion should be personal, sustainable, and made to last.

That’s why we design and manufacture the majority of our collections in-house, from our Cape Town studio to our cutting and sewing floors. Our pieces are produced in limited runs, ensuring exclusivity and reducing waste.

Every garment is thoughtfully created with attention to detail and crafted by South African hands.

When you wear Desray, you’re supporting local talent, small-batch production, and a movement towards conscious style.

EUROPEAN ELEGANCE, SOUTH AFRICAN CRAFTMANSHIP

Our designs are inspired by timeless European style — think classic tailoring, beautiful textures, and flattering cuts — but always interpreted through a uniquely South African lens.
Each collection brings together sophistication and ease, allowing you to feel effortlessly put together in every moment.
