Our Story

In 2018, college friends Sefton Rodriguez and Steve Smith traveled to Mongolia’s Gobi Desert and became friends with the local herders. After witnessing firsthand how traditional cashmere traders drive up prices and take the profits, the duo realized they could cut out the middlemen, pay their herder friends more, and sell luxury clothes for less.

Premium Materials

We design our pieces with the finest natural fibres – from Mongolian cashmere to merino wool, silk, organic cotton, and more. As a result, our heirloom-quality knitwear is naturally breathable, temperature-regulating, moisture-wicking, and hypoallergenic.

Intentional by Design

We believe in buying fewer, better clothes to wear and love for a lifetime. Our timeless, versatile pieces are crafted with natural and sustainable materials, quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and respect for the environment.

More than a Shop

Venus is a lifestyle. Based on the idea of elevated living, Venus combines minimal design and classic sensibility to create something different. Good is not good enough for Venus Community. The one thing that ties us all together is that we hold ourselves and our work to the highest standards.
