Bespoke Pieces
Bespoke Pieces
made specifically for you.
Is there something you’ve been dreaming of but can’t find in a store or in your size? Let’s talk about how to make your dream come to life. I require all custom orders to go through a consultation process. Don’t fret, the cost of the consultation goes directly towards the final cost of the garment, if you decide to go forward with the order. No commitment necessary! Schedule a consultation here.
These are some of my favorite things to make. When you get excited about an idea, I get excited about making it a reality. It makes me feel like my sewing machine is my very own magic wand. Here are some of my favorite custom orders recently.
Silk and wool from the scrap pile at Oregon Shakespeare Festival
Silk from a friend’s trip to India.
A bolero, using a vintage pattern, for my mama.
Custom Corset for Jill’s trip to the Palm Springs Film Festival.
I used over fifty zippers, silk lining and cotton channeling.
Hand-tipped and hand-cut steel boning for structure.
Thirty years ago, my mom made bicycling jerseys for my dad. Now I’m doing it.
I used her pattern from the eighties. Dad wears this every week on one of his daily rides.
My neighbor dropped off several yards of this beautiful brocade taffeta.
I let the fabric become what it wanted to - which ended up being a gown for Opening Night!
Curious about pricing?
It’s tricky for me to price a garment without a consultation. I price the garments based on my time. I only charge $30/hour, which is a little insane when you consider that other specialized jobs like most auto mechanics and tattoo artists charge more like $150/hour. My price does not include fabric, which I ask that you purchase yourself with my guidance.
Here is some very loose ballpark pricing to help get you an idea for what I charge for custom garments.
Lingerie/Bodysuit: $120+
Casual dress or romper: $200+
Formal dress or jumpsuit: $300+
Trousers: $180+
Shirt or blouse: $100+
