Process & Inquiry

Each commission develops through conversation, design, and slow handwork in my New York studio.  Lead times vary depending on the materials and labor involved.

Some commissions begin with a memory, a specific material, or an inherited piece of cloth.  Each piece develops through conversation and design, shaping custom garments, signature flower accessories, and textile works for weddings, collectors, and everyday wear. 

• One-of-one tailored garments
• Bespoke accessories in custom colors, materials, and scale
• Work made from inherited or personal textiles

Guided by the belief that a well-worn garment holds its own memory and presence, I approach textile repair through visible, intentional handwork.  Rather than concealing age, tears, or marks, I transform damaged areas into new focal points using custom silk pressed flowers, threadwork, and embroidery. 

• Flower Textile Mending: Covering worn patches, tears, or stains with pressed silk flowers
• Visible Threadwork: Reinforcing delicate seams and worn areas with decorative running stitches
• Textile Stabilization: Preserving fragile antique textiles and inherited garments for continued wear

Adding hand-stitched elements to transform existing garments, from applying silk flowers to outerwear lapels, dresses, and shirts to embroidering custom threadwork across jackets and sweaters. This service adds a singular, tactile layer to your wardrobe. 

• Silk flower additions on jackets, coats, or formalwear
• Custom embroidery
