About Cottage

Enjoy a warm cup of tea slowly, while I tell you my story: 

Assalamualaykum/hi, I'm Thaaminah and I like to keep things soft, slow and slightly magical. This brand was born from late nights at the sewing machine and quiet moments dreaming of a more intentional life.

I make every piece with care, right here in Johannesburg, combining my love for vintage comfort, natural fibers and storytelling

My Mission?

To help you feel good, whether you're in pajamas or planning your next sewing project. Cottage is the brand for you.

Our fabrics

The collection uses natural, breathable cotton as the primary base. This includes cotton yoryu for its soft crinkled texture and fluid drape, as well as cotton mesh for lightweight layering and ventilation.

All fabrics were chosen for comfort, breathability, and ease of wear, with a focus on everyday modest dressing.

Sustainability matters here.

Easy to say, but it takes a mountains worth of work behind this one word: "sustainability" It's not just a trend...

I work in small batches to reduce waste, use natural and breathable fabrics, and offer made-to-order garments to make sure nothing goes unloved.

Your support helps me keep this handmade circle going- and I'm so grateful you're here.
