Origins Story

Chamiah's vision for DEWEY began with a childhood dream of designing empowering fashion for women. In 2018, during her work on the NCS youth program, Chamiah connected with a participant who had Dwarfism, gaining insights into the struggles faced by those under 5ft in finding suitable clothing. Discovering a gap in the industry, Chamiah pioneered DEWEY in 2020, fuelled by passion and dedication to inclusive fashion.

At the age of 23, while pursuing an Enterprise Diploma at UAL and working full-time, Chamiah managed to commission a custom mannequin and gather crucial data. She launched the initial DEWEY collection, swiftly selling out and gaining significant media recognition.

In response to customer feedback and market insights, DEWEY expanded its mission to include extra petite individuals (4'6" - 5ft). This strategic move, rooted in inclusivity, has not only addressed unmet needs but also strengthened the DEWEY community, setting new standards for true inclusivity within the world of fashion.
