Tata Harper

What led you to launch Tata Harper Skincare and what is the philosophy behind it?

The inspiration to launch Tata Harper Skincare came from a deeply personal place. When my stepdad was diagnosed with cancer, I began to research everything that could contribute to our "toxic load"—all the chemicals and synthetic ingredients that accumulate in our bodies from daily products. I was shocked to find that even high-end skincare was filled with these unnecessary synthetics. I wanted to create products that were safe, pure, and luxurious—without any artificial ingredients. At that time, clean beauty wasn’t even a category, but I felt there was a better way to approach skincare.

Our philosophy is rooted in uncompromising purity and high-performance results. I believe beauty should be as good for you as it is indulgent and enjoyable. That’s why we control every part of our process, from ethically sourcing ingredients from all over the world to hand-batching each formula in our zero-waste facility. There are no shortcuts—each product is a complex blend of potent botanicals designed to deliver visible results without synthetics.

At its core, Tata Harper Skincare is about celebrating natural beauty in a way that respects both our health and the planet. By redefining luxury as something that’s pure, sustainable, and deeply effective, we empower people to care for themselves without compromise.

How did you discover Marfa Stance? 

I first discovered Marfa Stance over tea at Claridge’s with my dearest friend and style guru, Georgina Cohen. She showed up in the most incredible parachute parka, and I couldn’t take my eyes off it! Georgina started telling me all about the brand and its founder, Georgia—now one of my dearest friends—and I was captivated. The philosophy behind Marfa Stance was so inspiring, and the quality and design were everything I love in a piece. I went straight to the website afterward and ordered two jackets. They’re still some of my absolute favorites, effortlessly stylish yet practical, which is exactly what I need in my busy life.

How do you style your Marfa Stance and what is your favourite combination?

As a mom of three, life in Connecticut is always on the go, and my schedule keeps me moving between family time, work, and traveling across the globe. I need pieces that adapt to my life’s rhythm—versatile, functional, and stylish. Marfa Stance is perfect for this. My favorite combination is layering the jacket with a cozy liner during cooler months, paired with jeans and my favorite sneakers or boots. It’s just as practical for weekend hockey games and family outings as it is for a quick turnaround trip to Paris or London for work.

What I love most about Marfa Stance is that it balances style with versatility, which fits seamlessly into my life. The ability to mix and match layers lets me adjust to any climate or occasion. It’s a travel essential because I can wear it on the plane, bundle up in a new city, or keep things simple back home. With Marfa Stance, I’m able to stay true to my style without ever sacrificing comfort or practicality, no matter where life takes me.
