About Bespoke
I make bespoke garments for clients all over the country. Depending on the complexity of the outfit, how much artwork there is or what fabrics we choose, the process will take between two or three months. You can either make an appointment to see me at my studio in West Dorset or I will travel to your home, whichever is more convenient.
Most of my clients want something more unique than what they find in high street shops and more conventional tailors. My working process is more collaborative so the finished pieces are always a truer, more colourful reflection of personality and style. There are some recent examples of this work on the website, on the Wedding Dresses and Bespoke Design pages.
When we first meet I'll be able to give you a more accurate time frame and cost for the outfit. I'll then start working on some drawings and gathering fabric samples for you to see. During our second meeting you'll try on the first toile and look through the fabrics I've found. We'll probably meet a further two or three times before the outfit is complete.
I find it best to separate the outfit from my own fee, so you know exactly what the costs are. Based on what I've done before, this is the range for different types of outfit:
Wedding Dress £1,000 - £4,000
Bespoke Outfit £600 - £2,000
Bespoke Jackets or Coat £300 - £1500
