Frequently Asked Questions About Shopping at symplilayers.com

Welcome to symplilayers.com. If you are exploring our collection of women’s clothing for the first time, you likely have some questions about the brand, the fit, and how to care for your new pieces. Below are answers to some of the most common inquiries we receive.

What is the design philosophy behind the clothing offered on this site?
The collection is built on the belief that getting dressed should not be a chore. The focus is on creating pieces that mix and match seamlessly, allowing you to start your day feeling confident and inspired. The designs are described as “timeless style with unexpected detail,” featuring refined silhouettes and artful twists—such as a striking hem or a playful drape—that elevate everyday basics into wardrobe favourites. The goal is to offer clothing that works beautifully with your life, providing freedom and comfort without overthinking .

Where are these garments designed and produced?
All clothing is designed and produced in Canada. The design process is conducted on-site, and production takes place through a local network that includes home-based sewers and facilities within the country. This local approach allows for rigorous oversight of quality and fit. The brand is proud to support local job creation and maintains a hands-on connection to the community that helps bring each collection to life .

How do I choose the right size and ensure a flattering fit?
The brand is committed to inclusive sizing and flattering fits for a wide range of body types. During the design process, each style is shaped and tested on an inclusive range of body types rather than on standard mannequins. Fit technicians work alongside designers to move design lines and adjust hems until the most flattering look is achieved for each size. The philosophy is that the perfect fit is a feeling—it should drape precisely and highlight your features naturally .

What is the primary fabric used, and how should I care for it?
Many core pieces are crafted from a wash-and-wear jersey fabric known for its softness, fluid drape, and everyday comfort. To extend the life of your garments, it is recommended to wash them inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid hot water, bleach, and harsh chemicals, as these can set stains and damage the knit. For drying, air drying is the best method to preserve shape and colour; if machine drying is necessary, use the lowest heat setting and remove items while slightly damp. To prevent pilling, avoid excessive friction from rough bags or textured layers, and use a fabric shaver if pills do occur .

Are there other fabric options available beyond the classic jersey?
Yes. In addition to the signature jersey, the collection has introduced other feel-good fabrics. French terry pieces offer a plush, cozy feel with a bit of stretch, ideal for loungewear or casual daywear. Bamboo styles provide a breathable, soft, and lightweight alternative that is naturally odour- and moisture-resistant, making them excellent for travel or warm weather. These fabrics are chosen to prioritize comfort and ease of movement while maintaining a polished look .

What is the story behind the brand’s commitment to women?
The brand was founded with the mission to inspire women to be their most confident selves. The founder’s original inspiration came from witnessing how a thoughtfully designed fit could transform a woman’s attitude—not by changing her body, but by changing how she felt in her clothes. This commitment extends beyond design; the brand has a history of partnering with organizations that support women’s personal and professional success, including Dress for Success Vancouver and the Looking Glass Foundation. The core belief is that comfort equals confidence, and every woman deserves to feel comfortable in her own skin .

Can I mix and match different pieces easily?
Absolutely. The collections are intentionally designed to work together. With a cohesive colour palette and styles that range from essential tees and tunics to cardigans and wide-leg pants, the pieces are meant to be layered and combined. This approach simplifies getting dressed while allowing you to create a look that is uniquely your own. Whether you need a polished outfit for a presentation or a relaxed ensemble for a weekend, the garments are built to transition seamlessly through different parts of your life .
