Glorious Goodwood

Tamason got a wonderful gift from her hubby Stephen, a bespoke outfit made from a unique fabric all made by us!

During our consultation we asked all sorts of questions including favourite flowers but also other emblems or details they’d like to include, then we got to work on photographing the flowers and getting a mood board up together.

After the sketch was approved we started on the fabric design and making a Toile of the garments. The overall desire was to make a sharp design in a 50s style. Details include off the shoulder top, pencil skirt with pockets, matching scarf and a cravat and square for Stephen too.

When we design a fabric we use photos of the elements and take them into the computer and make a kind of collage. For this design we changed the natural colours and gave the whole combination a wash to match the very unique shade of orange / red. 

For every garment we make a toile so we can get the details and fit exactly right before making the actual garment.

And here is the finished design worn at Goodwood races in August 2019. We think Tamason is a real head turner in this vibrant outfit, designed especially for her and encompassing all the details she loves and feels comfortable in. How wonderful to have a whole outfit designed just for you and a fabric that can be called upon again to make something else!
