Dressmaking

I sometime get asked to make bespoke clothing for people, either for a special occasion or because they find it difficult to get clothes that fit on the high street.  I always make a block pattern from their body measurements and work from that to make the garments, and sometimes I make a dress form that recreates their shape for me to work with in my studio.  Sometime this work is one off but occasionally I work with someone over a longer period of time producing several garments that fit their unique shape.
