Cut from your measurements.
A hand-drafted pattern, a calico toile, two fittings and a hat blocked to your head size. No size charts involved.
Three steps, two fittings.
Every dress starts as a paper pattern drafted from your measurements. Every hat is blocked to your head size. Here's how an order comes together.
Measure & draft
Send your measurements or visit for a fitting. We draft a paper pattern that's yours alone.
Cut & toile
We cut a calico toile first, then fit it on you before a single metre of your fabric is cut.
Sew & finish
Final fitting, hand-finished hems, and a matching hat blocked to size if you'd like one.
What we'll ask you for
A soft tape and a friend are all you need. Not sure how? Book a fitting and we'll measure you at the atelier or over video.

- Waist cm
- Hip cm

Keep it fitting beautifully.
A few gentle habits keep your dress and hat looking as they did on the first day.
Dresses
Hand wash cotton cool or dry clean silk and crepe. Hang to dry and press on the reverse.
Straw hats
Keep dry and store on a crown-down hat stand or in a box so the brim holds its shape.
Felt hats
Brush gently in one direction. If caught in rain, let it dry naturally on its crown.
Alterations
Measurements changed? Get in touch and we'll let out or take in seams where the pattern allows.
