OUR STORY

MAUVAIS was built for those who dream big. Those who move with purpose, set their own standards, and know that success isn’t given - it’s earned.

Founded by Jordan Roche Jones, that mindset extended to what he wore. Realising that designer brands were overcharging for the name, while mass-market fashion prioritised volume over craftsmanship. MAUVAIS began with Jordan's passion for creating investment clothing that stood the test of time through exceptional quality and unique, iconic designs.

Since launching in 2018, MAUVAIS has grown from a one-man vision to a global movement. A brand recognised for unique luxury fabrics, considered details, and the perfect fit - pieces designed to get you noticed.

From sell-out collections to a community of ambitious individuals, MAUVAIS isn’t just about clothing. It’s about confidence, self-belief, and dressing for the life you’re building.

OUR FIRST POP UP STORE

MAUVAIS launched its first ever pop up store in Central London to bring the brand to life and connect with our community in person. It was more than just a retail space - it was an experience, designed to immerse people in what MAUVAIS stands for. From the fit of the clothes to the energy in the room, everything reflected our journey and ambition. This was our way of showing up for the people who’ve supported us - and giving them a real feel for what we’re building.

2020

YEAR OF TWO HALVES

Cancelled orders from retailers due to the rise of COVID-19 restrictions meant Jordan had to rethink the whole brand strategy.

A brave, yet pivotal decision was made to move away from wholesale and go "all in" with our online business.

After the worst start imaginable, the business hit records growing by 400% with the rise of our iconic Half Belt Trouser.

MAKING MOVEMENTS

A sell-out success of our first collection caught the attention of national retailer Footasylum who put MAUVAIS into all of their stores.

WHERE IT ALL STARTED

Starting from humble beginnings with a small "self storage unit" of stock where Jordan would split his time packing orders and then designing back in his bedroom.

WHERE DO WE MAKE OUR PRODUCTS?

Come behind the scenes as we take you inside our factories, meet the people who bring MAUVAIS to life, and show you exactly what goes into crafting the pieces you wear.

From the fabrics we select to the final stitch, we demand the best at every stage of our production process.

We work exclusively with trusted, highly skilled manufacturers who share our commitment to craftsmanship. Every supplier is carefully vetted to ensure they meet our standards - from the precision of their tailoring to the durability of their fabrics. If it doesn’t meet our expectations, it doesn’t make the cut.
