Commission information!
Current Schedule: Accepting one new commission a month
Past Work: Skirts, Dresses, Accessories, Couture
How to Commission:
Please contact me with a picture or sketch of what you are interested in having made. I will let you know my current availability and we can discuss fabrics and details. Every piece is unique so please show me what you were thinking of for an exact quote. The quote is usually a labor amount, materials are separate and depend on what the market price I am able to get for you (I provide receipts for material purchases).
Each custom order requires 1-2 fittings for anything more complex than a skirt, and may have more depending on any fit issues. I will create a mock up from the pattern I create for you in muslin and send it to you (in some cases I may just send the bodice of your dress as the skirt may not be fitted). You then take a few photos of you wearing it so that I can assess fit (front view, right side view, left side view, back view). I may have a few questions for you so I can get a better sense of what issues we may be having with fit, before adjusting your pattern. If there are quite a few major issues, I will send another muslin after adjustments before moving into actual fabric. I may request to send you your garment before finalizing it to assess final fit, as your actual fabric may hang differently from the muslin, and I want to see if there are any discrepancies.
Payment:
I require 1/2 the labor payment up front in order to begin your project. Once you have received your muslin, in order for me to move forward into fabric I will need the second 1/2 of the labor amount. Once your garment is completed, you will pay the balance for materials and shipping costs. I ship from San Francisco, and ship priority tracked in the US, first class internationally. If you would like to add insurance please let me know and I will get an exact shipping quote for you.
