Launched in May 2020 and founded by Rachel Scott, Diotima is a women’s ready-to-wear label that blends inspiration from all facets of Scott’s life and career. Her brand is known for unique laminate weave, printed tweeds, and lots of playful netting and transparency. Crochet details also peek from necklines, cuffs, and wrap the midsection of dresses and tops. Going forward, recurring themes for Diotima will include clean tailoring and elements of uniform dressing — nodding to her childhood and teen years in school— inspiration from dancehall style of the ‘80s and ‘90s, and Scott’s admiration of strong Jamaican women throughout its history.
