Both designers had been creative directors for Marc by Marc Jacobs before they launched their own line, which retails at Liberty, Matches, and Selfridges in the UK, among other locations in the United States, United Arab Emirates, and Japan. In 2019, Hillier was named creative director of J&M Davidson, and designed her first collection of ready-to-wear and accessories for the brand in autumn of that year. In 2021, Hillier was appointed as the Creative Director of AHKAH, a Japanese fine jewelry brand.
