The atelier
Savoir-faire
Seven months from the first drawing to the last thread. This is where that time goes.

- 01Drawing
- Each season starts as a single line on paper. Nothing is cut until that line explains every piece in the collection.
- 02Cloth
- Wool is spun thin enough to fold into a pocket; silk is left undyed where hand-work will sit on top of it, so the thread carries the colour.
- 03Ornament
- Medallions are beaded by hand over three to five weeks. In couture, the dress is cut to the medallion — not the other way round.
- 04Finishing
- Hems, linings and closures are finished by hand. It is the slowest part of the process and the only one we will not shorten.
