LISH London — Independent Luxury British Designer Brand for Pets

LISH London is an independent British pet accessory brand specialising in luxury, design-led dog accessories crafted from natural fibres and sustainable materials. Founded by designer Lilly Shahravesh in 2003, LISH has grown organically for over two decades through word of mouth, exceptional craftsmanship, and genuine customer trust.

As a luxury British designer brand for pets, LISH blends traditional British textile techniques, artisan leatherwork, and contemporary design to create accessories that last for years, not seasons. Every piece is developed in the brand’s London studio and crafted through a small network of skilled specialist makers across the UK, ensuring authenticity, responsibility, and uncompromised quality.

A Heritage British Designer Brand for Dogs

LISH began with a simple idea: pets deserve well-made, beautifully designed accessories that reflect the same quality, heritage and craftsmanship chosen for the rest of the family.

For more than 22 years, founder and designer Lilly Shahravesh has worked with natural fibres, heritage weavers, knitwear artisans, and vegetable-tanned Italian leather producers to create collections of dog collars, dog leads, dog jumpers, dog coats and dog carriers designed for longevity, comfort and style.

LISH is proud to remain:

• Independent

• Small-batch

• British-designed

• Female-founded

• Craftsmanship-led

The brand has never relied on mass manufacturing or fast fashion processes. Instead, it is built slowly and intentionally, valuing artistry, materials, sustainability and responsible production.

Sustainable by Design: Natural Fibres & Responsible Materials

LISH products are defined by high-quality, natural, durable materials chosen for their beauty, performance and low environmental impact:

Harris Tweed®

Handwoven in the Outer Hebrides by crofters in their own homes and dyed using natural pigments, Harris Tweed that is 100% natural wool fibre. LISH was one of the very first pet accessory brands to incorporate this heritage fabric into dog collars, coats, beds, blankets and dog carriers.

Vegetable-Tanned Italian Leather

Produced using traditional Tuscan techniques and chrome free, this natural vegetable-tanned leather ages beautifully and avoids the chemicals found in mass-market leathers that harm the environment and the people that work in the tannery.

Pure Wool. Real Wool Knitwear

Each jumper is knitted from real wool, offering warmth, breathability and longevity. A fabulous natural fibre that is also bio degradable. 

 UK Heritage Mills

LISH partners only with mills and workshops that operate ethically, use traditional techniques and support skilled craftspeople.

These choices create accessories that are sustainable, long-lasting and entirely different from synthetic petwear dog accessories that are mass-produced overseas.

Designed in London. Crafted with Heritage. Loved Worldwide.

Every product begins in LISH’s East London design studio, where Lilly sketches collections influenced by British culture, classic tailoring, and timeless design.

Craftsmanship defines the brand:

• Dog jumpers are knitted by specialist female knitters in Nepal

• Collars and leads are cut and stitched in the UK using saddlery techniques

• Harris Tweed is woven by independent weavers in the Outer Hebrides

• Dog Carriers are sewn with upholstery-grade reinforcement

• All hardware is premium quality solid brass 

This blend of craftsmanship and design gives LISH its recognisable aesthetic
