Alluvial Apparel Company
Specializing in the creation, development and growth of fashion and lifestyle brands
Who We Are
Alluvial Apparel Company is a growing, multi-brand apparel company built on experience, perspective, and a deep understanding of the contemporary fashion landscape. Founded by husband-and-wife team, John and Analeise Thomas, Alluvial brings together decades of generational expertise with a disciplined approach to brand building, product development, and wholesale strategy.
Analeise’s connection to the industry began early. Raised in a family with around four decades of experience in women’s apparel, she worked her first market at just 13 years old in her father’s showroom. That early exposure evolved into a career defined by both creative instinct and commercial understanding. In 2015, she opened her own showroom in Atlanta, where she spent years working closely with retailers and helping to grow contemporary and crossover brands from the ground up.
Together, Analeise and John have taken a measured, hands-on approach to building Alluvial. In 2019, they launched S’EDGE, now reimagined as Thomas & Lourdes, which marked the beginning of Alluvial’s brand portfolio. Alden Adair followed in 2022, bringing bold color and statement dressing to a growing customer base, and Double A was introduced in 2025 as a more relaxed, accessible counterpart.
Each brand is intentionally distinct, offering its own point of view while maintaining a consistent standard of quality, fit, and design. The goal has never been to do more for its own sake, but to build thoughtfully and create brands that feel clear, considered, and commercially strong.
What sets Alluvial apart is its focus on developing a small portfolio of brands rather than a single label. This multi-brand approach, rarely executed at an independent level, allows for creative range while staying closely connected to both the customer and the realities of the market. With the upcoming introduction of Sissy Prints by Alden Adair and Alluvial Town & Country, the company will expand into childrenswear and menswear, further solidifying its position as a diversified lifestyle brand.
Alluvial Apparel Company is grounded in experience, discipline, and a deep respect for the industry. At its core, the company is focused on doing things well: creating product with purpose, supporting its retail partners, and building with intention over time.
