Gamine is a women’s workwear label in Little Compton, Rhode Island, started in 2014 by gardener and nurserywoman Taylor Johnston. It makes dungarees, smocks, work shirts, thermals and sweaters. The work is spread across small American factories: dungarees in a Tennessee cut-and-sew shop, sweaters at a knitting mill in Fall River, Massachusetts, and trousers and shirts in Chicago and Texas.
Independent trade and regional press confirms the Tennessee and Texas factories. The brand lists fabric origin product by product. Some pieces use American denim, New England wool or North Carolina organic cotton knit, while many others use Japanese cloth or imported wool. That mix puts the brand as a whole at the second mark: sewn in the United States, with the cloth often imported.
The record
The dungarees are cut and sewn in a small-town Tennessee factory
“Made in an entirely analog, small town factory in TN, by the same team of talented seamstresses who used to make Levi’s & Carhartt pre-NAFTA; every aspect of this pant is hand cut & sewn.”

Sourcing Journal reports that both of Gamine's manufacturers are in the United States, in Tennessee and at Dickies 1922 in Texas
“Gamine Workwear works with two manufacturers both located in the United States. One is located in a small town in Tennessee, and the other is Dickies 1922 in Texas.”
