Chapter 03

Private Edition

Made for one bride

Private Edition

The story

Where this chapter began

  • Archive lace
  • Silk of your choosing
  • Hand embroidery
  • Heirloom fragments

Private Edition is not really a collection. It is a way of working.

We start from a conversation, a sketch, sometimes a piece of family lace, and build a dress that exists only once.

Four to six brides a year. No repeats, no reproductions.
