THE DESIGN
The Bottomon was designed and prototyped in Melbourne by Emma Jackson. It was designed to be a key piece in any room.
Each Bottomon is custom made and the fabric is cut from a different part of the cloth, so no two Bottomons are alike.
The top of each Bottomon is sculpted with a saddle-like profile that cradles the heel of your bottom. The wide Bottomon is designed to take 2 bottoms and the Bargearse, can take up to 4 bottoms, or a pair of legs.
