CUSTOMER GALLERY & REVIEWS

My popular made to measure service has always been complimentary and only requires 3 simple measurements - ensuring a flattering fit for all. I believe in the power of drafting my own patterns and throwing aways the shaming ‘standard’ size guides. Making each garment upon receipt of an order also equates to less waste, limited editions also ensure each piece is more unique, ideal for the black sheep!

Like so many of my lovely customers and readers, I am aware of the harrowing impact fast and fleeting fashion trends have on our planet and peoples lives. So here I want to celebrate dressmakers and artisan brands in the UK that prioritise quality over quantity and demonstrate there is another way to shop. I also advocate for classic, vintage inspired, timeless silhouettes that never go out of style.

Over the last 13 years, I have been so pleased to see more organic & sustainable materials become available. I support the ‘Campaign for wool’ and continue to avoid using any synthetic material containing toxic 'poly' plastic fibres and only work with natural materials that are compostable / ocean safe. Only organic pure cotton thread is used in my machines and my packaging is zero plastic, I am also committed to promoting & adding more certified organic materials to my own fabric library.
