Fundamental to our values is to ensure that we provide you with luxe quality pieces made with exquisite fabrics, laces and embellishments.  Core of this principle is the ethical hand-making of all our pieces in our atelier in Collingwood (Melbourne), Australia.

We source our fabrics, laces and embellishments from a wide range of ethical and sustainable suppliers. These include small family owned mills that have been passed on between several generations.  Hence, traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation is the focus of each of our pieces.

We offer a made-to-order service to avoid mass production and wastage, for a more sustainable environment.

As all our making is done in Melbourne, Australia, your piece is shipped within three months from the date of your order, unless a shorter time-frame is specified for particular pieces.
