So we have been quite busy since I last posted...
We have been making costumes for People and Stories , ENO and various lovely people who have a penchant for my work. Including making this for a lovely chap who is getting married on HMS Warrior later this month. Alongside this we have moved our studio to a new location...so yes...busy!

You can still order via the website, but we will not be responding to emails for a couple of weeks - from the 1st of Sept. If you are waiting for an order - I apologise now if it is delayed, but when we get back we will get straight back behind the sewing machine.

A happy customer who wore this outfit made by us to an event over the late May bank Holiday. "The weekend went very well. Thank you so much for getting it all done in time. It fits and works well."

Made for a recent theatrical production, this moleskin coat is based on a coat from the late 18th century. Will be adding to the website soon.

Made recently for a theatre group. They supplied the fabric. Probably the first double breasted regency period waistcoat/vest that I have made. I have been waiting for years for someone to order one!

Wow! Going through some old photos and came across these from 2018. Client supplied the epaulettes, but the rest is all my own work.
