Born on a Sunday. Desmond & Dempsey reclaims the day of rest.
Molly & Joel found each other in a fateful kind of way. Molly hailing from Australia, Joel from England, they fell into each other’s arms in Canada and in love in Madrid. A Sunday Skype was their ritual (this was pre-Insta times) until Joel promised better in-person Sundays. So, Molly moved to London with big dreams and very little nightwear. There was the idea. A pyjama company founded on a love of Sundays.
Since then, Sundays have been disrupted by the constant chatter of the world, telling us to become ultra, better, superior, healthier, fitter, happier, stronger, more organised, attractive versions of ourselves. We are here to stop that. To reclaim the Sunday. To reclaim the right to rest.
"It’s basically a pyjama brand, but not really about pyjamas. It’s about reclaiming rest. Like, everything right now is telling you to optimise your life, be better, do more, be on all the time... and we’re kind of, like, the antidote to that. We make really beautiful, feel-good things for switching off
It all started with Sundays, like properly leaning into doing nothing without guilt. So yeah, we make great pyjamas, but really we’re like selling that moment where you cancel your plans, get into bed, and just be.
Oh, and we’re really good in bed [wink]."
- Overheard, Joel Jeffery (CEO), London Pub
We make pyjamas and a big Sunday paper. They make excellent bedfellows, as you can imagine. The Sunday Paper is published bi-annually and is our excuse to get nosy. There’s ‘Pillow Talk’ with some of the world’s most wonderful and inspiring characters, artists, makers, musicians, comedians... There are recipes for Sundays, amusing accounts of hangovers and culturally exciting reccos. Then some space to colour a print or attack a crossword for some cerebral action.
So, you may not know. But we make pyjamas. They’re kinda fancy.
It’s not scientifically proven but we’re pretty sure they’re efficient 99.9% of the time at making you feel like you have your sh** together at home. They will most likely make you want to hop into bed and you most definitely will need to cancel all plans to stay there longer.
We could bore you with the technical stuff but long story short… they’re really good in bed.
