OUR STORY
Meet The Owner
My first business, Charlie & Claire’s, started when I was just 15 years old, making shirts with a Cricut machine and carrying orders to school in a tote bag between classes. I’m Maddy, the owner, and what began as a creative side project quickly grew into something much bigger than I ever imagined. Now at 24, Charlie & Claire’s has grown up right alongside me and entered a new chapter as Dear, Claire. I’ve rebranded the business, taken the leap, and left my full-time job to pursue my passions full-time. While the name and vision have evolved, every design, package, and launch is still fueled by the same excitement I felt making my very first shirt—now with a little more experience and plenty more late nights behind the scenes
Our Mission
Our mission at Dear, Claire is to help people feel comfortable and confident expressing who they truly are. We believe what you wear should feel like an extension of your personality. Easy to throw on, fun to style, and completely you. Every design is created and made by hand with care and intention. More than just clothing, we hope each piece carries a little extra positivity with it, so when you put it on, you not only look good, you feel encouraged and ready to take on your day.
