The Process

The Process

Eight steps, roughly, from a first conversation to a finished garment you can wear for years. Not every commission needs all of them in the same order, but this is the shape the process usually takes.

  1. 01

    Consultation

    A first conversation about what you need the garment for, how often you'll wear it, and what hasn't worked in the past. This usually takes longer than people expect.

  2. 02

    Cloth

    We bring out a working selection based on the conversation — weight, weave and colour narrowed down together rather than handed over as a catalogue.

    Measurement

    A full set of measurements is taken, along with notes on posture and how you stand - details a tape measure alone doesn't capture.

    Cutting

    A pattern is drafted and adjusted at the cutting table before the cloth is cut. This is where most of the judgment in the process happens.

    Fitting

    The garment comes together in stages, with at least one fitting along the way to check balance, length and how it sits in movement, not just standing still.

    Making

    Construction continues at the workshop upstairs — canvassing, pressing and finishing carried out by hand where it matters most to the result.

  7. 07

    Final Fitting

    A last check before the garment leaves the workshop — small adjustments are still possible here, and we'd rather make them than let something go out wrong.

  8. 08

    Aftercare

    The relationship does not end at delivery. Alterations, pressing and adjustments as your fit changes are part of what it means to have something made here.
