Nagnata Founder Laura May Gibbs on Sustainability, Style, and Self-Care
Description
In today’s episode from our Sacred Spaces Series, sponsored by King Living, I sit down with the extraordinary Laura May Gibbs, the founder and creative visionary behind Nagnata, a Byron Bay-based sustainable fashion brand redefining the industry.
We recorded this conversation in Nagnata’s flagship store in Byron Bay, a space that feels more like an art gallery than a retail shop. Designed in collaboration with the Pattern Studio, the store is a dreamscape of hand-carved timber pillars and curvaceous forms inspired by global architecture. It’s serene and soothing by day, but with LED lighting, it can transform into a vibrant and energetic space.
In this intimate chat, Laura May opens up about her rebellious youth, her journey into yoga and bodywork, and the personal healing that shaped her career. We explore how she balances creativity with sustainability, the emotional challenges of running a purpose-led business, and the lessons she’s learned from staying true to her values in an ever-changing industry.
Get ready for a conversation filled with inspiration, honesty, and a glimpse into the world of one of fashion’s most authentic innovators.
With special thanks to our Season Three Sponsors King Living. Like us at Beauticate, King Living believe that our home is our haven and they design furniture that is designed to change and flex as we do.
Their sleep collection is a true example of innovation in the wellness space, and I’ve been lucky enough to do a road test of one of King Living’s beds and customisable mattress in my Sleep Diary. I can’t wait to share my experience in episode 4, 5 and 6.... so stay tuned.
