THE DESIGN EXPERIENCE

Custom design is a collaborative and selective process.

All inquiries are carefully reviewed. If selected, you will receive access to a private consultation where your vision, inspiration, and design direction will be discussed in depth.

Following consultation, your design is developed and refined. Final approval is required before your piece enters production.

CRAFT & TIMELINE

Each garment is made to order and constructed with meticulous attention to detail.

Standard timelines range from 4–8+ weeks, with extended timelines for highly detailed designs. Availability is limited to maintain the integrity of each piece.

FITTINGS

Select designs require fittings to achieve the intended structure and silhouette. Local clients may attend 1–3 fittings, while virtual clients are guided through a detailed measurement process.
