KNWLS, formerly known as Charlotte Knowles, is a south London based brand designed by Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault. Founded in 2017, KNWLS draws inspiration from lingerie and vintage clothing, offering a range of ready-to-wear designs that blur the lines between concealment and exposure. Their designs feature shearling bomber jackets, distressed leather, sheer dresses, unexpected layering, and deconstructed corsets, which are adorned by washed-out, psychedelic patterning in an earthly palette. The brand, recognized for its distinctive style, has been featured in publications such as Vogue, Dazed, WWD, and is known for its "underwear as outerwear" aesthetic, with collaborations that include heritage brand Jean Paul Gaultier.
