Liminal Uniform was born from a place of contradiction: my earliest experiences with clothing came from having no choice at all.

I grew up attending a Catholic boys’ school on the North Shore of Sydney, where every day began with the same prescribed uniform. Strangely, this gave me a kind of freedom — the moment I stepped outside that uniform, I was faced with a blank canvas. My love for clothes began not from knowing what to wear, but from the challenge of figuring it out.

For much of history, what we wore was dictated by profession, trade, or service. Uniforms told stories of identity and belonging. Today, in our uniform-less world, I find myself returning to those garments of the past — not as rules to follow, but as sources of inspiration, grounding, and meaning.

At Liminal Uniform, we curate items that tie history into the present. These clothes are not costumes of nostalgia, but tools for self-expression — helping you tell your story in this moment, carrying you into a new self.

Liminal means the in-between: past and present, uniform and individuality, utility and style. That’s the space we live in.
