Our story

Consciously designed clothing, celebrating individuality, community and empowering self expression.

Meet the founders

Taking its namesake from the motels they lived out of while on the road, Will and Andy gradually grew the motel brand. In 2005, they set off on an inspiration trip to the island of Bali where a chance encounter with local creatives convinced them to put roots down and carry on the Motel journey on island time.


Where we are today

Still an independent brand to this day, Will and Andy continue to call London and Bali home, working with their global team to create Motel's core collections and trend capsules. Beyond the clothes, we are inspired by our community just as much as we hope to inspire them, connecting through our in-person events and global activations.


Our process

Each piece is designed in house by our wonderful team in London, with the essence of vintage, girlhood and independence at the core. Motel has always been inspired by the individually of our community, both our vibrant online network and the amazing individuals we have the privilege of meeting through our marketing efforts, who guide us with their self expression and unique style.


Our team

Evident in both the UK and Bali studios, Motel's team feels as much like a family as it did at the start with collaboration at the core, our London design studio works hand in hand with the creative and production team in Canggu, Bali. Largely female-led, Motel is proud to have grown with a large majority of our full-time team from the very beginning.
