What the fashion studio makes

Precision Fittings

Toile · Balance · Line

The toile stage, taken seriously. A calico shell is cut, fitted on you, and corrected until the grain hangs plumb and the seams sit where the body actually is.

Bridal Couture

Silk · Tulle · Lace

From the first sketch to the final press before the car arrives. Corsetry, layered tulle, hand-finished hems, and as many fittings as the gown asks for.

Embroidery

Silk thread · Bead · Sequin

Silk thread, seed pearl, sequin, and goldwork, worked in a frame by hand. Placed on the finished garment so the motif follows the seam, not the sample.

Alterations & Repairs

Hem · Seam · Restoration

Shoulders rebuilt, waists taken in, linings replaced, moth holes rewoven. Inherited and much-loved clothes returned to wearable condition.

One-to-one at the cutting table. Pattern drafting, machine control, and hand finishing, taught at your pace on a garment you actually want to own.
