Brushes & Needles

“Jazz is not just music, it’s a way of life. It’s a way of being, a way of thinking.”

Brush & Needles form a symbiosis between the exciting craft of visual artists and top-notch Italian tailoring. Just like in jazz, it is a fusion of different worlds that complement and enrich each other. Our sustainable apparel is certified &  all products are handmade in Italy – still the world leader in fashion! We use organic cotton & materials.

Marketeer Peter Bierens founded Brush&Needles in late 2018. A Dutchman with a great love for fashion and craft flowing through his veins, as both his grandfathers were tailors. So, it's no surprise that sooner or later - after several years of working in the fashion industry - he launched his own brand that merges with his other passion

Peter met visual artist Easton Davy at The North Sea Jazz Festival around 2005. Easton was a regular face at the art show from 2004 until 2018. The two became good friends & Peter took a keen interest in Easton's work.
