About The Fold

‘Being serious about work shouldn’t compete with

being interested in fashion.

Polly McMaster, Founder and CEO

Our Story


The idea for The Fold really started when I was working in
a male dominated and very smart corporate environment. I always enjoyed dressing up for business, but more often than not I found my sartorial options disappointing – the offering for workwear felt like it was at the bottom of the agenda for many womenswear brands.
