MADE TO MEASURE
The clothes we choose to wear can say a lot about who we are. Make your own unique statement with our made-to-measure and bespoke tailoring service.
Whether you have a clear vision of what you want, or you are looking to draw inspiration from existing items, or your favourite designer, our team is ready to turn your vision into reality. Please do allow eight to twelve weeks from start to finish.

Be inspired
Bring pictures of garments, web-links, colour swatches or fabric samples. If you have spotted a look you love, we will find a way to make it work for you.

Create
Collaborate with our made-to-measure team to create an item that is 100% you, from drawing board to dressing room.

Re-create
Bring in a favourite item for us to recreate or re-imagine in a different colour, fabric and some changed detailing
HOW IT WORKS
1
Initial consultation
This is all about inspiration and collaboration. You will discuss your vision with our team and work together to sketch a drawing. Once you are happy with what you see, we will take your measurements and get to work.
2
Choose your fabric
From rich linens, delicate silks and luxurious wools, to beaded fabrics, fur and leather, it is time to choose the fabric for your design. We will be on hand to make recommendations. And of course, we are happy to work with fabrics you already own or want to source yourself.
3
Your toile fitting
Our tailors will check the pattern in regards to your measurements and fabric choice – still plenty of time for you to amend and request changes before we move onto the next and most exciting stage of the process.
4
Making your garment
After the toile fitting, the pattern will be cut into the original fabric and sewn together by hand in preparation for a tack fitting. Perfecting key features of your garment – like the neckline, cuffs and hems – might involve several fittings before adding the tiny details that will bring the garment to life.
5
The finishing touch
Our aim is for you to take delight in our Bespoke Service – from the start to the very end being involved in every decision made, finishing off with you wearing your perfect garment.
