About Us

🤍 Z I B B Y

Hello, I’m Zibby — founder of Zibby, mum of three, and for over a decade the owner of EQ Woman, an award-winning independent clothing boutique in the Ribble Valley.

After years of helping women shop for clothes that actually work in real life, I realised most of us don’t want complicated wardrobes or fast fashion trends. We want simple, comfortable pieces that look good, last well, and make everyday dressing easier.

That’s exactly what Zibby is.

Zibby creates relaxed, elevated everyday wear — the kind of clothing you throw on for busy mornings, travel days, weekends, coffee with friends, and all the moments in between. Our collections are intentionally small and carefully designed, focusing on quality fabrics, flattering easy shapes, and colours that mix effortlessly.

It started with one hoodie designed to feel comfortable but look polished enough to wear anywhere. From there, we’ve grown into a considered range of casual essentials made for real women and real life.

I work closely with our production team on every piece, refining fit, feel and finish until it’s something I’d happily wear myself (and do, most days). Comfort always comes first, but never at the expense of looking put together.

At the heart of Zibby is the same friendly, personal service our customers love in the EQ store. We’re a small business built on community, honesty and helping women feel good in what they wear.

Zibby is simple everyday clothing, done properly.

Luxury comfort for modern living.
