About December Thieves
Nestled in the heart of Boston’s historic Beacon Hill, emerging brands from independent global designers fill two locations on Charles Street. Although each store’s product offerings are distinct from each other, the overarching concept remains the same: curations from global independent designers and makers that tell the story of the artists' visions and inspirations.
About Nuit Atelier
Founded in 2012, each NUIT collection is designed by Anastasia Ikonnikova and handmade in a downtown Toronto Atelier in limited quantities. With an emphasis on minimal production waste, natural and sustainable materials, as well as conscious design practices, NUIT rejects modern fast-fashion business models and embraces the traditional, sustainable, and ethical process of an atelier.
