A wardrobe that fits before the tea party

Bringing the newest releases from small independent ateliers — and telling you honestly when a piece runs small, because a dress that does not close is not a bargain.

• Measured on our table

  We photograph the tape on the garment. If the atelier sheet says 96cm and ours says 92cm, the listing shows 92cm and a note explaining the difference.

• Shirring described properly

  Full shirring, half shirring and non-shirred pieces are labelled separately, with the actual stretch range rather than a vague "fits most".

• Pre-orders you can plan around

  Pre-order items show the atelier's stated cutting window and the date we expect stock in hand. If that date moves, you get an email, not silence.
