Brooks Luby

As the sole designer and visionary of my brand of clothing labeled Brooks LTD I have been creating, professionally designing and selling my brand for more than 48+ years from my private atelier in Denver, Colorado.

I have recently embraced sustainability as a core part of my ethos. My brand is now incorporating hand stitching, recycling and mending into the design process. This shift reflects a growing awareness in the fashion industry about the environmental impact of textile waste. By focusing on these techniques, I am helping to extend the lifespan of garments, keeping them in wardrobes and out of landfills.

My brand is not just applying these principles to new designs, but is also teaching mending skills. This educational aspect empowers students to repair and maintain their own clothing, which can significantly reduce textile waste. It's a forward-thinking approach that combines fashion with environmental responsibility.

By teaching mending skills, I am extending my design philosophy beyond just creating clothes, to empowering students to participate in the ongoing life and evolution of their garments. I welcome students of all genders to learn how to mend, fix and reuse current pieces to keep them out of the landfill.  It’s our environmental responsibility.
