  • Meeting the designer

    The process begins at our London studio, where you will meet the designer and discuss your requirements or any ideas you have. This is the time to discuss styles of outfits - brainstorming a range of possibilities in fabrics, colours, embroidery and budget. This will provide a starting point for the design process. 

  • Designing

    After confirming the commission, we will start the design process. Using all of the ideas discussed, we will sketch potential ideas and send them over to you to choose from. Along with this we will compile a mood board of fabric swatches and embroidery styles. This is the point at which you are able to review the designs and make changes.

  • Sampling

    Once a design is settled upon, we will start the sampling process. Body measurements are taken in the initial consultation so from these, we will develop a ‘toile’- a sample garment made in a plain fabric. This helps us appraise the structure and fit of the design and allows you to visual the style in person. Embroidery designs will be developed and sampled so that a swatch can be presented for your approval with the toile.

  • Construction and final fitting

    Having fitted the sample and approved the embroidery, we will begin working on the final garment. Using the highest quality fabrics, embroidery materials and components, we will expertly craft and construct your outfit with utmost attention.

    After the final production, you will be invited in for a final fitting. This is where we can assess any final tweaks required and you can see your fairy tale come to life.
