Who is The Big Sis?
Born from The Big Sis Movement and started by Karen Mason, ex radio host and media guru.
Always a lover of denim, Kaz constantly felt the pull to the fashion industry. From living in Melbourne, Australia dreaming about her pop up denim shop, to designing merch for The Big Sis Movement, she knew this was a space she was meant to work in... And so became Big Sis The Label.
For the rebel queens, vintage lovers and all in between.
