October 28, 2008 1:08 pm
When Carole Bamford (wife of British industrialist Sir Anthony Bamford) decided to shun the idle lifestyle enjoyed by many a titled billionaire, she chose empire building over a more predictable mah-jongg hobby. In 2002, the spry sixtysomething opened a small shop on the family’s Daylesford property in Gloucestershire, England, to sell the produce, meat, and cheese from their two country estates (both of which sit on grounds that Bamford converted to ecologically friendly farms two decades earlier). Daylesford Organic, as the enterprise is now known, has since evolved into a complete lifestyle brand, encompassing a full gourmet store and café, a line of home furnishings, garden tools and accessories, not to mention the Bamford Haybarn Spa and an eponymous men’s and women’s fashion line, which uses only natural materials and integrates organic fabrics wherever possible. For brand devotees who have been relying on Lady Bamford for everything from milk to pants for the past six years, her new Bamford Body Collection has been a long time coming. Featuring an organic line, a botanic line, an organic line for babies, and a holistic and ambient line, the carefully crafted products have been developed under Bamford’s commitment to responsible, sustainable luxury that is better for you, better for the environment—and reliably up to snuff for members of the nobility.
