Harrogate sisters behind independent fashion brand named finalist at Muddy Stilettos Awards 2026

Luce and Bear, owned by sisters Lucy and Clare Bulmer, which was crowned 'Best Women's Style in Yorkshire' at last year's Muddy Stilettos Awards, has been named as a finalist again in 2026, securing a place in the top ten for 'Best Fashion & Interiors'.

The brand is built on true Yorkshire grit and humour and is known for its casual, feel good clothing with positive messages.

The sisters have built a loyal following for their quirky designs aimed to 'make people smile, even on the tough days’.

They now require votes from the public to win their category.

Clare Bulmer, Co-Founder of Luce and Bear, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to be finalists again this year.

"To be recognised alongside so many brilliant businesses across Yorkshire is such an honour.

"Making the top ten feels like a huge achievement for our small business and we're so grateful for all the local support we've had to get this far.

“We put our hearts and souls into our brand so to win our category last year was really special.

"It's now down to votes and we need all the help we can get.

"If you’ve come across our brand and like what we’re doing, please would you consider voting.

"We would absolutely love to retain our, slightly wonky, crowns.”
